I'm a Californian and am pretty aware of the news. However, most Californians are mystified by why our electric bills have tripled in the last few years, why produce is so expensive (inflation + punitive water prices even for farmers + higher shipping costs), why modest homes cost a million dollars, why our gas prices are sometimes double the national average.

The problem is apocalyptic environmentalism is the defacto religion of the managerial/professional class. No sacrifice is too severe to impose upon the working class and the poor. For the m/p class these expenses are trivial. Btw, it is not just EVs that impose costs upon the working class and poor. Ever ratcheting fuel economy standards result in auto engines with a rube goldberg air/fuel/exhaust sensors that eventually fail and impose severe costs upon lower income people for no significant improvement in air quality while allowing the wealthy who support these programs to feel superior to the working people who make this great state work. The politicians are ratcheting up the costs of energy and transportation to the poor for no good reason other than to make themselves feel virtuous and superior to the common people. It has too stop.

Perhaps the best interview I've seen on KZread. This speaks to things I've always known at some level, and fills in many of the blanks. The hypocrisy is nothing new; just look at tax policy with regard to housing. California still allows pre-TCJA limits for mortgage interest and property tax deductions. So owner-occupants generally get a 9.3 percent discount on these expenses (on top of federal deductions), while renters pay them as part of their rent with no discount. The value of these tax deductions roughly scales with the price of the home. So California rewards home buyers, and indirectly builders and lenders, for building MacMansions with long commutes. Those serving Bay Area commuters are now being built in the central valley. All of this requires more freeway lanes and other infrastructure. The central valley is known for 108F summers, so these 3000 square foot tract homes use a ton of energy on air conditioning at a time of day when the grid is most heavily loaded. If California politicians were sincere about reducing carbon emissions, they would start by phasing out expensive tax policies that encourage this sort of waste, before spending more to subsidize solar installations and EVs that only benefit those who don't need help. Don't get me wrong, I have no objection to people living where they want and driving what they want, so long as I'm not paying taxes to support their lifestyle.

Greatest propaganda ever, there are only two parties. Republicans are the worst party I can imagine... except the modern Democratic party.

That system isn't broken at all. The outcomes you warn of are actively desired. Consider electrical companies like those in Hawaii and California. First, expensive Green mandates are imposed, which the companies have to spend massively to meet -- which defers maintenance and brush-clearing. Prices go way up IF the state Democrats will allow a rate increase. Eventually electricity gets too expensive. OR, state Dems *refuse* rate increases, as they've done in Hawaii, and you get horrible fires sparked by the lousy, aging infrastructure which the electric company can't afford to repair. Then the lawsuits drive the company toward bankruptcy. In either case, what will be left to do? Why, the Dem-controlled government will just *have* to take over the electric company. Only responsible thing to do, right? And the Democrat party, which openly raves against the capitalist system and constantly seeks more government control, gets what it wants -- government control over yet another sector of the economy. Same with housing. When their "necessary" mandates result in enough people losing their homes or being unable to rent, the Dems will take control of housing. The State will build and maintain whatever sort of housing it thinks people should have. And before dismissing this as a conspiracy theory, take a close look at the way so many Progressives are touting and demanding State Socialism. Note how running these things into the ground dovetails neatly with their expressed desire to wrest control away from the capitalist system so that government can ensure all these things itself. If you believe that they mean what they say, and that damaging private-enterprise systems tends to make their stated goals possible, the most reasonable explanation is that this stuff is "feature", not "bug".

There'll be fires, collapsed parking garages, massively decreased state revenue from gasoline taxes. How can this work? It isn't intended to work. It's intended to fail in such a fashion that Dems get most people out of their cars, which Democrats have openly stated they want to do. If you're wondering what happens to rural folk who can't afford EVs yet rely upon being able to drive to work and to buy food -- Dem politicians and most Dem votes don't care what becomes of them.

WELL DONE and TRUE

Thank you for this conversation. This has been on my mind for the last years as a life long Californian.... What the hell is environmentalism if it simply destroys traditional ways of life? If feels, just like Covid, a little too convenient. When people make the greed argument - or even the selfish NIMBY - it still does not capture the control component. There is something that is fundamentally about control in climate. If EVERYTHING emits, then ANYTHING can be made illegal, including travel, food, Jesus, the skate park down the road. So this gets spelled out to the micron of CO2. Why does this momentum exist? Is it a Communist Spirit? Does it have a brain? Money certainly talks. It could just be extortion, monopolies, and world government. I think the UN has to go. It sucks as a climate arbiter, as a peace making unit and even as a human rights forum. It is useless. But I digress. We are not the bees knees here in Cali. As much as it's gone to our heads. We created our own artificial environment full of movies and tech, glamor and riches that makes us presumptuous. The stitches are starting to come off with our reality can suck me I don't need materials or even energy. The final Omm that nobody heard. I hope that people at a basic level get pissed about something if only that they were robbed of two years of their lives.

The activists who cause all this damage benefit. We need to make the activists liable for their damages. We have some laws that allow these attorneys to collect "legal costs" that are padded with the costs of their "experts" which is why they file against agencies. It looks like organizations like CBD which has lots of lawyers and very unimpressive "experts" make a good parasitic living feeding off of agencies. A change in the law making lawyers liable for the costs imposed upon others would make legal parasites a less profitable business and we would have less of it.

Outstanding!

Yountville, CA is a prime example of NIMBY. Nearly all of the service workers I met there, lived in Fairfield and beyond, while residential homes are owned by the super rich and maintained as vacation homes. Yountville Elementary School had to shut down because families have been priced out of their own town. EAT THE RICH

An environmental attorney that gets it? Wow!

Newsom: No ICE cars will be allowed in California by the year 2035. Exactly one week later - Newsom: Please stop charging your cars between certain hours because the electric grid can't handle it.

So true. Wealthy ideologues write and benefit from policies that crush those in lower income brackets ranging from poverty to middle class. Homes in California have been made unaffordable for people trying to get a first home. Incentives for electric cars, or solar panels or eco landscaping are targeted toward people who already own property. They eventually save those home owners more money making the already wealthy and fortunate even wealthier. For people who rent, the rent increases are so high there’s getting to be no chance of saving up for a home in the future. Renters do not have the ability for tax breaks or wealth growth from incentives targeted at building updates. No infrastructure has been built around renters reliably charging electric cars. People aren’t only driving petrol because the don’t care about the environment, they’re driving them because environmental infrastructure is only being built for the wealthy.

A small point that doesn't really change the argument: catalytic converters use precious metals and not rare earth elements. Rare earth elements are mostly used in the production of magnets and electronic devices.

Socialism as an ideology, had it's credibility injured by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's book “The Gulag Archipelago” when it won the Nobel prize for literature in 1973. Sixteen years later, communism collapsed in the Soviet Union, after 40 years of Hell on Earth. The mastermind of a Marxist think tank in Germany, Heinrich Boell, saw the writing on the wall, in 1973, when he read the book and used his Marxist cell to brainstorm an alternative to Socialism, as a reaction to The Gulag Archipelago. Boell's cell founded the first Green Party, in the world, in Germany, in 1975. They decided to requisition and modify The Communist Manifesto by substituting the constituency of the “Worker” and the “Working Class” with “Nature” and the “Environment”. The bad guys remained the same, the Free Market Enterprise System (“Capitalism” according to Karl Marx.) When communism did collapse, in 1989, the Leftists went into a profound depression. Then they noticed Boell's Environmentalism and realized that it was a good vehicle for Marxism, in lieu of Socialism, after its credibility was finally destroyed, after the people of Eastern Europe rejected it, en mass. Therefore, Environmentalism is the new Marxist ideology moving into the 21st century.

This a great video. About a quarter way through and half to point out that a big part of the problem is a misunderstanding of basic economics and incentives. For example, even if the steel industry could become competitive in 1975, it would mean electric arc furnaces and getting rid of 90% of the employees. The companies AND the unions milked it dry. they extracted as much as they could out of it and made it impossible to transition to a moe competitive industry. Look no farther than Weirton Steel, which had the employees take over the company. they stuck around for 20 more years but they also shed roughly 90% of their employees-and this was employee owned. On the elites side, they have a command and control vision of the world. they are dangerous psychopaths when you give them this much control over people’s lives. they don’t understand basic economics, they think you can just force everything to close and everything you want to be produced. But they have no awareness of how incredibly foolish and impossible their vision is to implement, as well as dangerous.

The take on forests on Federal Lands saying that the existing condition is being protected is not so. NEPA (the National Environmental Policy Act) requires only that the "existing condition" is described. If the existing condition has over stocked forest then that is the no action alternative and the Agency (Forest Service or BLM) can prescribe thinning and logging. Other laws impinge upon this like the Endangered Species Act and create side boards. NEPA does not protect the existing condition. Does CEQA (an act modeled on NEPA) really do this? Most every thing else is a stellar description of what is going on.

So they are hostage to the “climate hysteria” science, and don’t want to listen to any of other highly qualified PhDs who know far better about the impossibility of CO2 leading to the massive extra heat energy required to increase our gigantic planet surface temperature.

Blaming forest fires on "a failure of forest management" is total nonsense

@andylangeland496

Wildfires are not exceptional in California history... but when you don't allow removal of dead trees it is literally "adding fuel to the fire" - this was going on for years, I know the government relented for a bit after several bad fire seasons and allowed some removal of dead trees in the past decade ... live trees are really hard to burn in and of themselves... the indigenous tribes used to burn the Yosemite Valley floor to prevent larger/out of control wild fires. This is not specific to California... the indigenous people in Virginia historically burned the forest as well - the fires would clear the underbrush but leave the large trees still alive.

@@andylangeland496 CO2 increases warm the planet, increasing droughts and decreasing tree moisture content. This far offsets any benefit plants may get from the increased CO2. The drying effects for example allow boring beetles to kill trees, since trees lack enough moisture to use their natural defenses. So yes, CO2 is relevant to the discussion.

@@shpedoikal the correlation between C02 and drought is not solid. How can the earth be greening, from a rise in CO2, while also having increased drought conditions? They pump actual greenhouses full of CO2 to increase plant growth, it does not kill/dry the plants out. California had record precipitation just this past winter. Yes, I know that good rainfall does not equate to an end of drought, but it is easy to argue that California is a very dry, arid climate in general with little precipitation in between El Nino years, and has been for recorded history, long before the industrial revolution. I agree regarding the beetles killing the trees, but they are invasive, not a native species , if I recall correctly. But I believe it was in this video, that the interviewee mentions lack of adaptation as the bigger problem. Humans have always adapted to climate and weather conditions, well, if they wanted to survive. So we need to adapt by managing the forests... not complain about climate and then let it burn down due to lack of management. Just like when Californians complain about droughts, but do not build increased water storage infrastructure to harvest the rain fall during El Nino years. Not to mention the Delta, where the vast majority of the precipitation flows back out to the ocean in the name of saving the Delta Smelt, all while complaining there is not enough water.

Civilization may have progressed enough to conquer the second law of thermodynamics. Civilization needs to strive for this goal with synergistic interdisciplinary teams.The outcome would be perpetually changeable never gained or lost energy. Conservation of energy says nothing about energy distribution. With this principe only, the heat in a pair of similar medium temperature thermal energy reservoirs can be shifted at no cost to become held in a hot reservoir, cold reservoir pair. This can be done if micro volumes with a natural range of temperature can be deterministically routed in normal time to become sorted out. Diversity, time, and energy are different atributes. Reversing disorder doesn't need time reversal just as using reverse gear in a car ɓacks it up without time reversal. The second law of thermodynamics had a distinct begining with Sir Isaac Newton's correct professional scientific observation that the heat of a fire in a fireplace always flows towards the cold room beyond. Victorian England became enchanted with steam engines and their cheap, reliable, and easy to position physical power. Rudolf Julius Emanuel Clausius, Lord Kelven, and, one source adds, Nicolas Léonard Sadi Carnot, formulated the Second law of thermodynamics and the concept of entropy using evidence from steam engine development. These men considered with acceptance [A+] Inefficiently harnessing the flow of heat from hot to cold or [B+] Using force to Inefficiently pump heat from cold to hot. They considered with rejection [A-] Waiting for random fluctuation to cause a large difference in temperature or pressure. This was calculated to be extremely rare or [B-] Searching for, selecting, then routing for use, random, frequent and small differences in temperature or pressure. The search, selection, then routing would require more energy than the use would yield. These accepted options, lead to the consequence that the universe will end in stagnant heat death. This became support for a theological trend of the time that placed God as the initiator of a degenerating universe. Please consider that God could also be supreme over an energy abundant civilization that can absorb heat and convert it into electricity without energy gain or loss in a sustained universe. The law's formulaters did not consider the option that any random, usually small, fluctuation of heat or pressure could use the energy of these fluctuations itself to power deterministic routing so the output is no longer random. Then the net power of many small fluctuations from many replicant parts can be aggregated into a large difference in temperature, pressure, or electricity's amperes and volts Heat exists as the randomly directed kinetic energy of gas molecules or mobile electrons. In gasses this is known as Brownian motion. In electronic systems this is carefully labeled Johnson Nyquist thermal electrical noise for AI readability. Hypothetically, diode depletion regions are practical sites for enabling mobile electrons energized into motion by heat to deterministically alter the electrical resistance of the depletion region according to the moment by moment direction they are carrying electricity. The thermal electrical noise is hypothetically beyond the exposed lattice charge / separation drift (diffusion) equlibrium thickness of the depletion region as thermal noise exists in a resistance path of one material. Consistantly oriented diodes in parallel hypothetically are successful electrical Maxwell's Demons or Smoluchowski's Trapdoors. The energy needed to shift the depletion region's deterministic role is paid as a burden on the moving electrons. There would therefore be usable net rectified power from each and every diode connected together into a consistantly oriented parallel group. The group would aggregate the net power of its members. Any diode efficiency at all produces some energy conversion from ambient heat, more efficiency yields higher performance. A diode array that is switched off has no energy conversion and no performance. The power from a single diode is poorly expressed. Several or more diodes in parallel are needed to overcome the effect of a load resistor's own thermal noise. A plurality of billions of high frequency capable diodes is needed for practical power aggregation. For reference, there are a billion (10^9) 1000 square nanometer cells per square millimeter. Modern nanofabrication can make simple identical diodes surrounded by insulation smaller than this in a slab as thick as the diodes are long. The diodes are connected at their two ohmic ends to two conductive layers. Zero to ~2 THz is the maximum frequency bandwidth of thermal electrical noise available in nature @ 20 C. THz=10^12 Hz. This is beyond the range of most diodes. Practicality requires this extreme bandwidth. The diodes are preferably in same orientation parallel at the primary level. Many primary level groups of diodes should be in series for practical voltage. Ever since the supposedly universal second law of thermodynamics was formulated, education has mass produced and spread the conventional wisdom throughout society that the second law of thermodynamics is absolute. It is an old paradigm. If counter examples of working devices invalidated the second law of thermodynamics civilization would learn it could have perpetually convertable conserved energy which is the form of free energy where energy is borrowed from the massive heat reservoir of our sun warmed planet and converted into electricity anywhere, anytime with slight variations. Electricity produces heat immediately when used by electric heaters, electromechanical mechanisms, and electric ligts so the energy borrowed by these devices is promply returned without gain or loss. There is also the reverse effect where refrigeration produces electricity equivalent to the cooling, This effect is scientifically elegant. Cell phones wouldn't die or need power cords or batteries or become hot. They would cool when transmitting radio signal power. The phones could also be data relays and there could also be data relays without phone features with and without long haul links so the telecommunication network would be improved. Computers and integrated circuits would have their cooling and electrical needs supplied autonomously and simultaniously. Integrated circuits wouldn't need power pinouts. Refrigeration for superconductors would improve. Robots would have extreme mobility. Digital coin minting would be energy cheap. Frozen food storage would be reliable and free or value positive. Storehouses, homes, and markets would have independent power to preserve and pŕepare food. Medical devices would work anywhere. Vehicles wouldn't need fuel or fueling stops. Elevators would be very reliable with independent power. Shielding and separation would provide EMP resistance. Water and sewage pumps could be installed anywhere along their pipes. Nomads could raise their material supports item by item carefully and groups of people could modify their settlements with great technical flexibility. Many devices would be very quiet, which is good for coexisting with nature and does not disturb people. Zone refining would involve little net power. Reducing Bauxite to Aluminum, Rutile to Titanium, and Magnideetite to Iron, would have a net cooling effect. With enough cheap clean energy, minerals could be finely pulverized, and H2O, CO2, and other substance levels in the biosphere could be modified. A planetary agency needs to look over wide concerns. This could be a material revolution with spiritual ramifications. Everyone should contribute individual talents and fruits of different experiances and cultures to advance a cooperative, diverse, harmonious and unified civilization. It is possible to apply technlology wrong but social force should oppose this. I filed for patent us 3890161A, Diode Array, in 1973. It was granted in 1975. It became public domain technology in 1992. It concerns making nickel plane-insulator-tungsten needle diodes which were not practical at the time though they have since improved. the patent wasn't developed partly because I backed down from commercial exclusitivity. A better way for me would have been a public incorruptable archive that would secure attrbution for the original works of creators. Uncorrupted copies would be released on request. No further action would be taken by this institution. Commercal exclusivity can be deterred by the wide and open publishing of inventive concepts. Also, the obvious is unpatentsable. Open sharing promotes mass knowlege and wisdom. Many financially and procedurally independent teams that pool developmental knowlege, and may be funded by many separate noncontrolling crowd sourced grants should convene themselves to develop proof-of-concept and initial-recipe-exploring prototypes to develop devices which coproduce the release of electrical energy and an equivalent absorbtion of stagnant ambient thermal energy. Diode arrays are not the only possible device of this sort. They are the easiest to explain generally. These devices would probably become segmented commodities sold with minimal margin over supply cost. They would be manufactured by AI that does not need financial incentive. Applicable best practices would be adopted. Business details would be open public knowledge. Associated people should move as negotiated and freely and honestly talk. Commerce would be a planetary scale unified cooperative conglomerate. There is no need of wealth extracting top commanders. We do not need often token philanthropy from the wealthy if people simply can be more generous if consumer commodities are inexpensive.
