Ronald Stein:  “Transition to Renewables is a Globalist Suicide Pact” | Tom Nelson Pod #347

Ronald Stein argues that transitioning to renewable energy is impractical as wind and solar power can only generate electricity and can't replace the diverse products and fuels derived from fossil fuels, which support modern civilization. He stresses that crude oil derivatives are vital for producing more than 6,000 everyday products and for powering various transportation modes crucial for global logistics. Stein advocates for continued use and more efficient consumption of fossil fuels until a viable, adequate substitute is found to maintain global living standards and infrastructure. 00:00 Introduction to Ronald Stein 00:19 The Renewable Energy Delusion 01:01 The Importance of Crude Oil 02:06 Products Derived from Fossil Fuels 02:40 Challenges of Replacing Fossil Fuels 03:05 Electricity and Its Dependence on Oil 03:41 The Role of Fossil Fuels in Modern Society 05:31 Environmental and Economic Impacts 06:47 Future of Energy and Sustainability 20:20 Ethical Concerns with Green Energy 27:19 Global Energy Policies and Realities 30:30 Conclusion and Final Thoughts https://heartland.org/about-us/who-we-are/ronald-stein-pe/ —- Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries My Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1
