Part I of II

Summary:

Outlawing fossil fuels, a move often justified in the name of 'climate change,' is a strategic offensive against the American public

This 'war' is not a physical combat but a battle of ideas fought in the minds of ordinary citizens..

The 'weapons' used are psychological and fear tactics to manipulate public opinion, which should make us all more cautious and critical of the information we receive.

The strategies employed are complex and involve manipulating information, including neurological, biological, and economic data.

The potential consequences of this 'war' are far-reaching and demand our attention. They include but are not limited to a significant economic upheaval, increased cost of living, and a drastic shift in power dynamics, all of which could profoundly affect our financial stability and cause concern about the future.

Fossil fuels include coal, petroleum, natural gas, shale, bitumen, tar sands, and heavy oils. There are ten thousand products made from petroleum derivatives. Our lifestyles would be impossible without most of these products. So, let's destroy them.

I'm sorry, but we cannot own six thousand products. We may select from the products that were available from about the year 1850.

A top energy grid operator warned that the U.S. would face widespread rolling energy blackouts this summer because demands for electricity will exceed the capacity to produce enough. Shortages will exist in all parts of the country where summers are hot.

Replacing fossil fuel and electrifying everything will require a massive overhaul of the nation's electrical generation apparatus and utility infrastructure. There are 3,000 electric utilities with wires, poles, and transformers. There are 60 to 80 million distribution transformers, of which two-thirds are age-dated and need replacement. The system will require a major overhaul with heaver transfers to handle higher power levels, including new utility poles to handle the weight. Trillions of dollars will be required, only to be created out of thin air by the government, increasing the national debt of the taxpayers.

The corporatists who control the decisions, contracts, manufacture, and installation of all the new components will make massive profits. Corporations win, the people lose, and there will be no change in the climate.

People will bear the negative result of paying higher electric bills and having less flexibility and mobility. Electricity bills will become a significant portion of an average family's disposable income.

The current administration has engineered a destruction plan with an abundance of negative whammies to destroy the lower and middle classes.

The realities are as follows:

• Destruction of the entire petroleum and coal energy industries.
• Dramatic rise in the cost of goods and services. This could mean higher prices for everyday items, making it more difficult for the average person to afford the necessities of life, creating a sense of financial strain and burden.
• Rising housing costs for appliances and home maintenance equipment are due to being all-electric.
• The systematic destruction of living standards, mobility, and the middle class could lead to a potential loss of personal freedoms and a negative impact on our way of life. This shift could significantly alter our daily lives and how we interact with the world around us, raising concerns about the future of our society.

The injection of unlimited fiat currency into the economic system, which. The vertical trajectory of creating new money is unsustainable and will create runaway inflation.

• Uncontrolled inflation
• Depreciation of the purchasing power of the dollar.
• Increasing taxation.
• Rising constrictive regulations are designed to make people think it is to save the planet.
• Rising interest rates.
• Continuous meddling in other countries'  affairs and threats of sanctions, tariffs, isolation, confiscation of foreign assets, and even war. The military-industrial complex and its corporate stockholders profit hugely from this meddling worldwide.
• The globalists and the government know that the way to control the public is to instill fear of destruction and loss of lives. Political systems thrive on exploiting the save me mentality.
• The author believes that the public is being brainwashed into believing that hydrocarbon energy is wrong and that giving up personal freedoms is the tradeoff for 'green energy.' The term 'Green energy' refers to energy produced from renewable sources, such as wind, solar, or hydroelectric power, and is considered environmentally friendly and sustainable. The author, however, does not share this view and believes that the elites are exempt from this 'brainwashing.'
• There will always remain abundant natural resources and jet fuel for the rich.
• There has been continuous growth in the size and intrusion of government. Since the government has created a monopoly enterprise, we can expect that it will eventually destroy the country's entire economic infrastructure.
• Every newly created bureaucracy magnifies power and size and never disappears. A different name merely reinvents some. The 'monopoly members,' referring to those who hold a monopoly or exclusive control over a particular market or industry, only represent themselves.
• The rising cost of beer and wine.

Only the wealthy, well-off, and government employees can survive.

The scarcity of water and power is a daily topic in news cycles for the entire U.S. population. It is also an everyday conversation around the world. Most power generation occurs by gasoline and diesel as petroleum products; the third power source is natural gas, a petroleum byproduct. The U.S. has a 98-year natural gas supply; the U.S. also has 53 years of oil reserves at current consumption rates. However, the government leadership is attempting to destroy the entire industry, including gas, diesel, and natural gas.

Our utility systems are massively interconnected. There is much more to learn than requiring a few flashlights and candles for a few hours. It's important to know what happens when the electricity shuts off.

A complex system generates, stores, and transfers electricity. Electricity is provided through an electrical grid far away from our neighborhoods. Southern California receives its electricity from various sources, including wind-powered generators, hydroelectric and natural gas-powered electric turbine generators, and photovoltaic cell (solar) systems.

The push for solar is a hoax against the public. Renewable energy sources comprise 20% of the utility-scale U.S. electricity generation. Hydropower (7.3%), wind (8.4%), and solar generation (3.3%) are the breakdown.

Most large commercial electric power generators rely on natural gas, which drives almost 33% of the entire U.S. electric generation fleet. Nearly all new conventional electricity generation facilities are natural gas-fired. For gas distribution, natural gas-powered engine pumps fuel the main compressor stations feeding large interstate pipelines.

The 'natural gas grid' is a system of pipelines and other infrastructure that transports natural gas from production sites to consumers. The natural gas grid reciprocally relies on electricity to pump to end locations. For the gas grid to function smoothly in residential distribution directly to the consumer, electric-powered compressors and pumping stations are maintained throughout the system. If the electricity goes out or the pressure at the pump station fails, the pressure will not be adequate to drive the natural gas into the home. Even though the pressure when delivered to the house is about PSI (pounds per square inch), it still needs to be pressured to travel through the pipes.

Large-volume pipelines move gas from the storage facilities to the local utility transfer station, and pressure must be more significant when traveling to multiple homes, from 60 to 1,500 pounds per square inch (PSI). Municipal, commercial-sized portable generator backup systems with some redundancies are also available. Failures that require awareness of disaster preparedness planning will still be likely.

A community electric grid breakdown may occur due to excess usage, faulty systems, or intentional disconnects by the electricity service providers. Government regulatory overreach has created upgrade replacements and renewal gridlock, adding to the complexity of dealing with natural disasters, fires, earthquakes, accidents, sabotage, etc.

The U.S. leadership has declared war on the citizens. The elites are driving petroleum-based fuel processors and users of the fuel out of business. The grid is being restricted rather than increased. The grid needs to be improved because it is insufficient for greater future capacity demands. As a result, we see state after state, such as in Texas, where the hot weather causes the grid to freeze due to overuse. Commercial corridors, industrial users, and neighborhoods plunged into darkness. While electrical suppliers strive to keep up, there will be a time when it will be impossible to do so.

Natural gas is abundant in the U.S., with a 98-year supply. But U.S. leadership is working to destroy that industry.

What will come next will be that the government encourages and then forces people to use less energy. We must charge Teslas by installing a cost-effective solar panel system on our roof. U.S. leadership will enable and then push for the conservation of every natural resource. Similar abusive actions are to prohibit the amount of water we use and less of everything else. However, private jet fuel will be readily available to the elite.

As part of the conversion process to all-electricity, the government plans to charge citizens for electric usage according to their income levels, essentially becoming a progressive taxation model. Pricing will consist of a flat usage fee and a substantially higher fee for high users, thereby serving as a redistribution mechanism.

If World War III occurs, our enemy's first offensive action will be to destroy the electrical grids and communications networks throughout the U.S. Imagine a time when all electrical systems are destroyed and are not repairable in short order. Imagine no electricity, communication devices, computers, or auto travel, stuck like you were back at the turn of the 19^th century. Panic is likely when life and survival become exponentially more difficult. The same would apply to the enemy country at war with the U.S. Its electric grids and communications networks would be destroyed.

Water grid infrastructure is a statewide storage facility network that captures rainwater and snow runoff in reservoirs and aquifers. Water movement relies on dams, thousands of miles of rivers, canals, reservoirs, aqueducts, and hundreds of miles of pipes to move water where needed. The system relies on sizeable electrical pumping stations, valves, filtration, and treatment equipment. A large holding tank facility is not refillable without electricity and large water pumps: the results would be no electricity or working electric pumps to move water forward. Keeping community water storage tanks higher than homes allows gravity to down draft pressure, creating a temporary solution for retaining adequate water pressure.

Water and sewer management also require electrical motors. Since water flows with gravity, lift stations and pumping stations are needed. Lift stations are for pumping waste or sewage material to a higher elevation, whereas pump stations are designed to raise water to a higher level. Sump pumps move water to a higher level of accumulated ground water, away from basements, or move the water to a higher terrain for runoff. The water is directed or funneled into a catch basin and returned to the sump pump, which pumps it to the street level, storm drain, or dry well. Some sump pumps are hardwired into the electrical system and have a battery backup.

When the electricity goes out in your home, what other systems should you expect to be affected?

• Electrical appliances will not function, including the catastrophic consequence of not charging your cell phone, iPad, and flat-screen TV. What about the garage charging unit for your Tesla electric vehicle and the neighborhood charging stations? I'm so sorry to get ready to peddle your bicycle after you pump up the tires using an old-fashioned hand pump! Who has one of those? We may lose all those delicious frozen TV dinners and Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey ice cream in the freezer.
• Natural gas is supplied through a different system that requires electricity. The problem remains that the gas will only continuously flow through the lines with pressure pumps and regulators that require electricity. Gas stoves, water heaters, toilets, dishwashers, clothes washers, and forced-air heating and cooling will not work. Gas appliances, including water heaters, usually have an electric pilot light ignition system.
• Gas stations will shut down because the fueling pumps require electricity.
• If you go to the supermarket, the check-out stand and equipment, such as the freezer room, may not be powered. However, many larger retailers have backup generators fueled with propane that can start with a 12-volt battery-operated starter.
• If you go to your favorite restaurant, you need all the above services. Uber Eats and DoorDash food delivery services will have the same problem, and Pizza Man will not deliver.
• Suppose you rely on a truck transportation system that uses internal combustion engines to deliver goods. In that case, they may be able to get fuel pumped into the truck if the trucking company has its fuel stock and self-sufficient pumping station. Most truckers do not.
• For those who choose to place solar energy cells on the roof to generate electricity, the electricity is transferred through the community electric grid for the utility company to store. The electricity is then transferred from the community facility back to your home. Sorry, the transfer system from the grid back to the consumer relies on electricity.
• If the homeowner purchased a large battery pack and inverter, then the homeowner will create, hold, and redistribute his electricity. Only some who bought the solar panel system would spend 5 to 10 thousand dollars extra for the battery storage system if they knew the consequences. Home electrical storage units are D.C. (direct currency flow) rather than A.C. (alternating currency flow). The DC system will require an inverter to modify the usage from D.C. to A.C. To operate your appliances and equipment, the electrical current will be altered to 110 volts.

So, who is creating the mess? The government leadership. Now, Let's Fix It.

The most obvious answer is a home-based backup generator. There are many options depending upon one's requirements to generate ongoing electricity. However, this is an overview article, not specific about backup generators, which require research by the consumer. Options include:

• The question is the size of a family budget. Generator units differ in wattage requirements and space, but there is a solution for the price. They can range from $500 to $100,000.
• Consumers can find a portable or permanent standby generator to do the job.
• Even units operate on multiple fuel sources, including natural gas, propane, and gasoline.
• If one fuel is unavailable, the consumer may switch fuel sources as easily as changing a quick-disconnect coupling.

While knowledge is power, preparing for inevitable catastrophes has become necessary. You can learn about your options online and then create a prepper plan.
