Bangkok: No Power Shortage Here

A typical Asian capital, Bangkok is a critical tourist hub for Thailand that must rake in billions annually.

There are over 10 million citizens in Bangkok and an unknown number of tourists and unaccounted for locals.

We stayed at Ratchaprarop within the fashion area just out of Bangkok central. The supply of belts, bags, shoes, wallets, t-shirts and almost every other item of clothing is overwhelming. If you can't buy off the hook, there are tailor shops that will tailor you a suit in one day. As my days of wearing suits are over, I didn't investigate how good a one day suit is.

What occurred to me most often was the large amount of energy that is being provided to probably billions of air conditioners, lights and equipment throughout this city and elsewhere. One small building I saw had 20 split level air conditioners hanging from one wall. Presumably they weren't all working simultaneously, but presumably they could.

Where does all this energy come from? Obviously not from wind turbines and solar. I haven't seen a solar panel anywhere. Nor a wind turbine.

While Western Countries follow energy policies destined to turn them into Third World countries based on a well documented global warming Deception (See Dr Tim Ball's several books), Third World countries are steaming ahead towards the First World.

Any saving of C02 we make will have absolutely no benefit to anyone except the UN, to whom PM hopeful Bill Shorten has promised yet another $500 million if elected, and manufacturers of inefficient wind turbines and solar panels - China.

A gas that is essential for all life on earth that represents 0.04% of all gasses in the atmosphere has been demonised and is now accused of endangering all of us who inhabit the planet. What will people say about us in 100 years' time as they visit the remnants of our broken down wind farms - when they stop laughing?

Australia the lucky country is now the stupid country!
