The world consumes roughly 28 million tonnes of copper every year—a mass equivalent to five Great Pyramids of Giza. Yet that refined metal is just the tip of the iceberg of a far more monstrous physical reality. Beneath those 28 million tonnes of copper sits a massive geological footprint: billions of tonnes of blasted rock, colossal volumes of chemical tailings, vast energy expenditures and trillions of litres of water. This is all fresh, relentless demand. Crucially, up to 75% of that copper never enters individual turbines, solar panels or electric vehicles. It goes into the invisible grid infrastructure required to link everything together and make it function. When you trace 28 million tonnes of copper backward into the Earth, the true scale and cost is staggering. The drive to overhaul the global energy structure rests on a profound misunderstanding of physics: it treats energy supply as a 'software' problem while ignoring the devastating raw material gridlock caused by manufacturing billions of solar panels and over a million wind turbines, with hundreds of thousands more in the pipeline. When an energy system shifts from reliable, high-density fuels—hydrocarbons and uranium—to low-density, intermittent sources like wind and solar, the physical apparatus needed to capture, convert, stabilise and transmit that diffuse flux just explodes. It becomes an absurd trade-off: expending colossal amounts of finite, high-grade fossil fuels upfront simply to dig up materials for low-density generators—generators that can never run a steel mill, power an ocean cargo vessel or sustain international air travel. Mining is already a vast consumer of continuous energy. As global copper ore grades decline—frequently dropping to 0.5% or lower—the mass of rock that must be dug, hauled, and crushed grows exponentially per unit of recovered metal. Crushing rock alone accounts for roughly 3% to 4% of total global electricity consumption. Demanding billions of additional tonnes of processed metal creates a self-defeating loop: huge volumes of reliable, baseline power are consumed just to extract the raw materials needed to construct weather-dependent hardware. Yet the primary metals drain does not come from the turbines or arrays themselves. It stems from the enormous physical web needed to transport that energy across vast distances. Diffuse generators located hundreds of kilometres from cities require unprecedented volumes of step-up transformers, substations, high-voltage transmission lines and regional grid overhauls. The heavy overhead wiring looping across the landscape regularly dwarfs the metal required to build the turbine in the first place. Because two centuries of industrial civilisation have already extracted the highest-grade deposits, meeting future demand forces miners to dig deeper, crush harder and manage billions of tonnes of toxic slurry. This is a twin crisis: the escalating physical cost of ore recovery on the front end, and an unprecedented tsunami of industrial e-waste bound for landfills on the back end. The physical limits of this model are not dictated by how much metal remains in the crust, but by the soaring energy penalty required to dig them up and refine them. Heavy industrial processes—blast furnaces, chemical synthesis, cement production and deep-shaft mining—all need continuous, high-temperature thermal energy and uninterrupted high-voltage power. Intermittent turbines and panels cannot reliably deliver that dense power to sustain heavy industry, let alone an entire national economy. The ultimate irony is that the staggering industrial muscle needed to build, maintain, and periodically replace these diffuse energy systems relies entirely on the coal, oil and gas they were meant to replace. The dream of a fully weather-dependent industrial grid ignores physical reality. It overlooks a looming nightmare of endless ore extraction, refining bottlenecks, and perpetual grid expansion.

Gazans on October 7, 2023. Not a few, not hundreds, but thousands, as far as the eye could see, celebrated as the body of a dead Israeli woman was paraded through the streets of Gaza. And some still have the nerve to sympathise with these people.

🇫🇷France isn’t rioting. It’s being taken. Trump said the part Paris is terrified to say out loud: Islam wants the country. Islam is not asking for France. It is taking it. Trump just refused to lie about it. They burned France and called it protest. Trump called it what it is: Islam moving in to take over.

Israel should start planning now for a mass wave of French Jewish immigration, Aliyah Minister Ofir Sofer says, as unrest spreads across France.

“We, the Jews of Israel, have a great problem with progressive Jews in the West who support immigration. It is time for us to call them out.” — @GadiTaub1 at NatCon Jerusalem.

This was a seditious conspiracy against the Republic waged from within the Department of Justice and at the highest levels of government.

This is the scene after the third crossing more people are coming Tell me this doesn’t look like an invasion This was filmed today at 9:40 am French time Just north of Handerlot

It's painful to watch these politicians get away with selling our country to Islam.

On @AbsoluteWithE for 12 minutes. I document how a State Department-designated terrorist leader got his Mafia-lawyer appointed Magistrate Judge Uppadhyaya handling my beef with Dominion. So runs Blind Justice in the court of Judge Carl Nichols. Plus Chinese boot-drives, etc.

It's right there in black and white - your own rules. You can ban marches. And you did. You've banned three of my marches in occupied Islamist zones. You say there is no two-tier policing, while simultaneously practicing it. You are not there to referee politics. You have eroded the public’s trust and continuing down this road will further damage that trust. Why are you scared about banning Islamist marches?

The Americans have abandoned Britain as an ally, and rightly so. They can see what we’ve known for a while, that we are invaded by hostile foreigners, that there is no security here any more, and that civil war is coming to our country because our criminal government wants it.

Isn't it funny watching a retarded Muslim ("retarded" because she has 0 self-awareness) denounce the USA for "being built on slavery, rape, and oppression"? Sweetie, now do Muhammad. He made a religion out of slavery and rape. Islam is a vile monument to slavery and rape.

🚨 My fellow patriots... I'll be blunt: When Chris Murphy is mirroring any Republican, there's a big F*CKING problem. Qatar is methodically destroying generations of American students. When Speaker Mike Johnson is panic-screaming, “THE BARBARIANS ARE AT THE GATE,” what you’re witnessing is the political fallout from decade$ of Qatari influence on campuses. 60% of registered voters ages 18–24 now side with Hamas. That's 60% of young Americans proudly supporting a U.S.-designated terror organization that kidnapped Americans, shoved them into tunnels, starved and executed them. Support for terrorism, communism, and Marxism is spreading into our high schools and junior highs. Those numbers are untenable for a nation whose future will increasingly be shaped by Generation Z and those coming behind them. The political consequences unfolding on our campuses are the fruits of Qatar’s decades-long labor. Shape enough institutions, influence enough students, and eventually that influence reaches the ballot box. We need change agents inside the Department of Education who understand counterterrorism and national security. Fast. @StephenM
