Bartow County Power Plant in EPA Crosshairs: Shutting Down 50% of units by 2028.
John Kerry wants to end ALL coal-plants: We are on the list!
Please raise your hand if you voted for John Kerry for any elected position that he currently occupies. Ok, I see no hands. That is because no one has voted for John Kerry. Yet he is acting like the Monarch of the World. Offering dictates and pronouncements that ARE actually being accomplished.
The latest is merely an annunciation of what he and the globalist elites have been accomplishing for many years now: they are ending coal as an energy source in America. That is happening here in Bartow county.
“We’re going to be transitioning out of coal”… “There shouldn’t be any more coal fire power plants permitted anywhere in the world. That’s how you can do something for health. And the reality is that we’re not doing it.” John Kerry at “28th Conference of Participants” meeting (COP 28) 12/3/23
The globalists don’t care that Coal is the most efficient way to produce electricity. They don’t care that removing coal will harm many people who rely on it for heat in the winter and cooling in the summer. They are thrilled that Americans will have to do with less because that will make them subject to the whims of the elite who will work to force them into ridiculous electric cars, ensure they have no meat or dairy to eat or feed their children and confine them to 15-minute cities.
They want everything in the world that is prosperous and productive to be destroyed for the average person and reserved solely for them. Then, in their dream, they can “control the masses”.
Bartow County Set to Lose Half of Coal-fire Units
The EPA has been the instrument of stopping coal plants in the Biden administration. This started with Obama’s war on coal and Biden is continuing it. The EPA is looking for every avenue it can to stop them. In addition, woke-corporate America has been using ESG compliance and removing loans and insurance as means to promote this dangerous climate agenda.
Southern Company (owner of Georgia Power) has responded with compliance. They have announced they will close two of the four Plant Bowen units by 2028. Don’t think for a minute that they will keep the other units operating without a change in policy in D.C.
They also dryly offered the following:
"With these expected changes... Southern Co. will have announced total decreases in its coal generating capacity from more than 20,000 MW across nearly 70 generating units to less than 4,500 MW of coal capacity remaining at eight generating units," Southern Co. Chairman, President and CEO Thomas Fanning said Nov. 4, outlining some of the company's planned changes during its third-quarter earnings call. "This equates to a reduction of nearly 80%."
As if Georgian’s can afford to lose 80% of their power generated by coal. As if wind and solar can replace that. Luckily we have a new Nuclear plant in Georgia through Southern, but even that will be accompanied by higher prices for Georgia consumers. Southern company proudly announces that they seek to go to “net zero greenhouse emissions by 2050”. This is merely singing the song of the globalists who are using a phony “manmade climate crisis” as an excuse to exert more central control over people and deny them power.
People need to recognize the end goal of these dangerous people seeking to destroy civilization. To restate those goals, here is the opening of this post:
They are thrilled that Americans will have to do with less because that will make them subject to the whims of the elite who will work to force them into ridiculous electric cars, ensure they have no meat or dairy to eat or feed their children and confine them to 15-minute cities.
It is critical that we replace the current occupant of the White House, Joe Biden Then reversing EPA rules by Executive orders and ending the role of people like John Kerry in the climate-elite trying to run the world. Then passing legislation to prevent it from ever happening again.
Doing that will require a candidate that can WIN in 2024 and will actually accomplish this in D.C.. THAT will be the topic of a series of posts coming soon. (Hint, Only Ron DeSantis can win the General election in 2024).
