Here’s the truth: In 2024 just 2.9% of global energy needs were met by wind and solar. After more than $5.5 Trillion USD in investments globally.
In this video I go DEEP down a data rabbit hole and bring you ALL the data, AND the sources (see below) to arm you with the undeniable proof that Net Zero is dead, and Chris Bowen has been lying this whole time.
It all gets a bit technical, but by the most GENEROUS methods of counting energy (the one that makes wind and solar look the BEST), over the last 10 years COMBINED wind and solar have provided about 3.8% of the globes energy, but over the same period they’ve attracted nearly 20% of global INVESTMENT!
What does that mean?
It means the lie that ‘firmed wind and solar are the cheapest’ isn’t just a lie here in Australia, it’s a lie everywhere on earth, and this reality is fast catching up to the fantasy.

“CALM NIGHTS; CALM NIGHTS; CALM NIGHTS; CALM NIGHTS and CALM NIGHTS are the simple reason why wind and solar will never amount to meaningful power sources. That’s it. No sunshine, no solar power. No wind, no wind power.
While a calm day might see a little solar trickle into the grid (usually an uncontrollable flood at high noon) wind turbines simply slack off and their owners couldn’t care less about your power needs. The only upside is that birds, bats, bees and bugs can operate as they have done for millennia without the threat of being splattered, or sliced and diced to oblivion.
A run of calm days – ‘wind droughts’ in English and ‘Dunkelflaute’ in the German, quickly drain the so-called mega-batteries and see grid managers scrambling to keep the system from total collapse. Power rationing and blackouts soon follow. No amount of huff and puff from propagandists can escape the effect of sunset and calm weather ..” Full article ..
