The Earthshot Prize – Debunked

The Earthshot Prize and other forms of Greenwashing Bullshit

My lefty neighbour came round to dinner last night and, miraculously, it didn’t descend into an argument as usual. Mainly due to my use of facts and figures to destroy her latest piece of hogwash. She was getting herself in a lather about a 14 year old Indian girl who has just won the “Earthshot Prize”. I have no idea what it is and can’t even be bothered to find out. In a nutshell, she has “invented” a pedal cart that uses solar panels to power irons (not gays in this instance) rather than women using charcoal.

I feigned interest for a while, then asked said neighbour if she knew how much power an iron drew? She didn’t – I told her it was about 2000W. I then asked her if she knew how much power a solar panel produced? She didn’t – I told her it was about 250kW per m2. So, either this little girl has on iron operating at about 200W (good for fuck all) or she has 8m2 of panels on her ickle cart (she doesn’t).

So, the gullible just like to hear the greenwashed headlines, no matter that scientifically it is bollocks. Same for most of the green horseshit. The lefties would soon complain if Gupta didn’t do their ironing properly

  1. The whole climate change/global warming thing is run in the same way. Have a look at Climate Discussion Nexus site. It turns out that because the predicted climate models DO NOT match with observed (provable) data, the DATA must be wrong!
    Because, the ‘specialists’ are looking forward to a nice pension – THIS is obvious anyway.
