Alexandria Occasional Cortex lies, blames it on Republicans

We're going to learn that AOC and all the hype the media is spreading are another foreign plot. It's going to be hilarious.

[MAGA MAN]

She thinks every building can be updated in a decade. That's insane. There aren't even enough people to do the work let alone the money in people's budgets to make that happen. Do you have an extra $10K to update your heat and get solar panels?

$10k wouldn't do much to the average house. Try $100k

She going split the dem party like Bernie did. I love it. Keep the stories coming!

You are probably right. The number was just plucked.
But really, we're just talking about electric heat. Everything else besides geothermal uses fossil fuel. Electric heat is cheap to install. It just sucks to operate it. I spent $300 a winter month on electricity in CT in an apartment with electric heat. I spent $130 for the last month with gas to heat an entire house that needs windows replaced. LOL

I don't think the alarmists have any idea what they are advocating

I love gas for heating, cooking, and hot water.

I've been looking into gas powered AC units.

She took down her website with the "ideas"...I wonder why>?

Nazi Pelosi probably told her to do so, if she wanted to go on living.

The Amish use gas powered refrigerators.

I'm thinking about getting an, on demand LPG water heater. Though I'm also thinking about getting an outdoor wood burner, which will heat my water in the winter.

Gas Refrigerators

I can't understand why more new homes aren't being built to use gas.

Some Righties will say her ideas are stupid, they'll use the regular debunked talking-points, but when that doesn't work, they obsess over unimportant things. Most Righties go directly to things like her gender and looks first.

At most I've give her a 7. More likely a 6. But she's way too far on the crazy scale.

I converted from electric to a hybrid gas/high efficiency heat pump system two years ago. Cut my power bills well over half. Probably 3/4

I assure you that they have no clue.

A heat pump costs roughly 1/2 to operate compared to cheap electric heaters.

I just replaced the windows in my house and that alone cost $17k. The old ones were fairly energy efficient, double pane, but wood, and to paint them was getting too expensive. My new ones are fiberglass outside/ wood inside, dual pane.

To get to zero energy use you first have to go super-efficient with your insulation system. This means triple pane windows and somehow add at least 2" foam insulation. For a wood or vinyl sided house that means stripping off the siding, adding the foam then new siding. For a brick home you have to go at it from the inside, which means a complete remodel of kitchens and baths.

Then you add solar panels to get to zero net energy. Since these only work during the day you have to store energy to use when the sun isn't shining. Sure you can do this off grid with a huge bank of batteries but most homeowners don't have the brains to keep that system running, so will rely on the power company. So the big mystery is how power companies are supposed to take extra power generated during the day and somehow store it, then give it back to consumers during the day.

Currently there are few options to store energy on such a massive scale. One method is to pump up to a mountain reservoir during the day then generate power from the falling water at night. Since libs are against dams we've got a big problem there. And of course not everyone has a mountain in their region.

Large chemical batteries? Ever price a Tesla?

This will also make nuclear power useless as you can't stop and start it daily. So that clean power source is out in favor of stop-start power stations, which guess what, use oil or natural gas.

The whole idea is fucked up and these turbo-libs are too dumb to understand.

Oops that uses natural gas so you're not GREEN with that lol

I have a client that had a wood boiler outside his home. It just burned to the ground a month or so ago.

What’s your point, stalker?

Bernie was tied to manifort

he was never a Democratic party memeber
