Well, we all know it\u2019s anything but, of course, don\u2019t we? We\u2019ve shown you how communities in rural Victoria and New South Wales are railing against massive transmission lines to link in renewable projects. In Queensland, locals are angry that pristine bushland is being cleared for wind farms. And we\u2019ve got coastal communities in South Australia and New South Wales protesting against offshore wind turbines, massive projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The expansion of renewable energy projects has created problems right around the world now. And energy expert and environmentalist, Michael Shellenberger, has been calling it out. He joins me from the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship Conference in the UK. Good to talk to you again, Michael. Tell us about the vast amount of land and landscapes that have been taken up by renewable energy projects around the world. It\u2019s really just starting to hit home big time in Australia as communities, whether it\u2019s a solar farm here or offshore wind here, really arc up about what\u2019s going in. But this is happening right around the planet, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Michael Shellenberger:&nbsp;<\/strong>Yeah, that\u2019s right, Chris. It\u2019s going to be with you. In fact, around the world we see there\u2019s opposition from conservationists, indigenous people, local communities, to solar and wind energy projects. The reason is very simple, is they require 300 to 600 times more land than a natural gas plant or a nuclear power plant. It\u2019s very easy for people to discover this for themselves. You can go to Google Maps and draw a circle around a power plant or a wind farm or a solar farm and then divide it by the amount of electricity that it creates, and you get a power density calculation. And you\u2019ll discover this is a huge difference. It\u2019s not 50% more. It\u2019s 3-600 times more land. And so anybody who loves nature, who loves the national environment and wants to protect endangered species, really needs to resist these projects. We have much better alternatives. We\u2019ve been sold a big lie about green energy. That\u2019s the reality of it. And people are now waking up to that around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chris Kenny:&nbsp;<\/strong>And there are all sorts of aspects to this. Some aspects are aesthetics. People don\u2019t like to look out over wind farms or solar farms, but also productive agricultural land is at a premium in most parts of the world. And if you\u2019re putting solar farms or restricting land use because of wind turbines or transmission lines, it actually reduces the amount of food produce you can get from your land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Michael Shellenberger:&nbsp;<\/strong>Yeah, that\u2019s absolutely right. And I should also say there\u2019s nothing wrong with opposing a solar or wind project for aesthetic reasons. We want to live in a beautiful world, and what we\u2019re seeing with these renewables projects is it\u2019s really the trashing of landscapes. It\u2019s a kind of garbage energy. It\u2019s also worth pointing out that solar panels create 300 times more waste than nuclear waste that comes out of nuclear plants. Nuclear waste is safely contained to the site of production, and we have no end solution to the solar panel waste problem. If we tried to incorporate the costs into solar panels costs, it would be four times more expensive. We\u2019re externalising the cost of green energy pollution onto future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But yeah, you\u2019re absolutely right. I mean, we have prime farmland around the world going to create what is effectively highly inefficient, irregular, and unpredictable energy that\u2019s just often dumped onto the grid and not used. It\u2019s really the most wasteful form of energy imaginable, because it doesn\u2019t follow when people need it. It only produces energy when the sun is shining and the wind is blowing, which as we know is not even half of the time. So I think it really, almost everything is a downside. We\u2019ve been sold a big lie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chris Kenny:&nbsp;<\/strong>And just quickly, Michael, because I know you\u2019ve got a whole documentary on this, but we\u2019re looking at a lot of offshore wind here, and you\u2019ve done a lot of work on how that can be damaging to whale populations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Michael Shellenberger:&nbsp;<\/strong>Yeah, that\u2019s right. The documentary is called Thrown to the Wind. You can see it at public.substack.com. We\u2019ve given it away for free now. It\u2019s a shocking story. We\u2019re seeing that simply using sonar to map the ocean floor on the East Coast is killing whales, as is the increased boat traffic. It\u2019s all working to separate mothers from their calves. The babies are dying. The mothers are dying. We\u2019re experiencing a catastrophic decline in the North Atlantic right whale due to wind energy. These projects have to be stopped. And the good news is, is that because wind energy is also so inefficient, so expensive, they\u2019re now asking for a bailout, yet more money from American taxpayers that we can\u2019t afford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So we\u2019re going to win this battle, Chris. We\u2019re going to win it in the United States. I believe we\u2019re going to win it in Australia as well, because people are waking up to the realities that green energy is actually brown energy. It\u2019s actually terrible for the natural environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chris Kenny:\u00a0<\/strong>Yeah, indeed. This is a battle that\u2019s only just begun.
