A $1-billion lithium-ion battery cell production plant that was planned for Maple Ridge, B.C., has been shelved. The parent company, Taiwan Cement Corp., announced construction of the Canadian plant with much fanfare last year, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Premier David Eby attending and promising a combined $284.5 million in government funding. Taiwan Cement Corp. company chairman Nelson Chang is quoted in a release saying construction has stopped in order to focus on Taiwanese production, in step with other battery makers suspending similar projects across North America. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/company-news/2024/12/05/taiwan-firm-halts-plan-for-1b-battery-plant-in-bc-that-had-federal-support/

But the grid hasn’t expanded at the same pace. As a result, the operator is increasingly paying wind farms, particularly those in Scotland, not to run. So far this year, the UK has spent more than £1 billion ($1.3 billion) in “congestion costs” to turn off plants that can’t deliver electricity because of grid constraints, and switch on others. https://activistpost.com/2024/12/uk-pays-wind-farms-1-3-billion-to-shut-down-when-its-windy.html

Is this the FAKE bird flu ? The current HPAI outbreak in the United States began in February 2022. Over the past 30 days, infections have been confirmed in 47 flocks nationwide that together account for 6.05 million birds, according to data from the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.

We cannot get Robert F. Kennedy Jr. here working with President Trump fast enough . . . Not all caffeine presents itself the same, according to emerging research demonstrating that synthetic caffeine may accelerate aging while naturally occurring caffeine could slow age-related decline. The type of caffeine in your coffee may play a role in its protective effect against aging. About 60 percent of the caffeine consumed by Americans is synthesized in a lab, meaning it doesn’t come from natural sources such as coffee beans or tea plants. Synthetic caffeine is what popular companies such as Pepsi, Coke, and Red Bull add to their beverages to give their drinks an extra kick. In a 2017 study published in Nutrition & Metabolism, higher caffeine intake was associated with shorter telomeres, a marker of cellular aging, in adults. However, increased coffee consumption was linked to longer telomeres. This suggests that compounds beyond caffeine may provide anti-aging effects. “On the surface, it might be assumed that caffeine intake and coffee consumption are essentially the same variable,” the researchers wrote. “They are not.” https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/synthetic-versus-natural-caffeine-and-how-each-may-affect-aging

Next year could see still higher meat and poultry prices at the grocery store, analysts say. That’s because an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposal is expected to put some meat processors out of business, resulting in potential job losses and supply chain disruptions. The EPA announced a proposed rule change governing effluent, or wastewater, limits for meat and poultry processors in January of this year, followed by public comment in the spring. The agency’s final rule will go into effect in August 2025. https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/dozens-meat-processing-plants-expected-shut-down-under-new-epa-rules

A massive fire broke out at a chemical plant in Conyers, Georgia, prompting local area evacuations and road closures. Footage of the blaze shared on X might remind some of the train derailment fire in East Palestine, Ohio, early last year. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/massive-fire-engulfs-atlanta-area-chemical-plant-evacuations-underway

Looks like small town Albertville, Alabama (Population 22,726) is becoming the next Springfield, Ohio. Letter From Jay Palmer Former Immigration Advisor to the Trump Administration Native of Barbour County, Alabama; Mr. Palmer estimates there are over 15,000 Haitians in the surrounding communities, including Sylacauga. He had also informed there are thousands more on the way in the next three weeks. Predatory migration has inundated the northern Alabama surrounding to supply cheap labor to the Pilgrim Pride Poultry plant which is largest the nation and other factories. Reports show buses are circulating in five or six counties with migrants and there is insufficient housing near their work sites. This has opened the door for human trafficking, gangs and unsanitary living conditions. “This is going to get worse. Some Haitian and Hispanic communities are at odds, and this will lead to accelerated tension. Why? The Hispanic workers are asking for higher wages and the staffing agencies want lower wages. Therefore, they are replacing the Hispanic workers with Haitian workers who will work for much less, whether documented or undocumented. One example is Coffee County, where 600 Hispanic workers are reportedly being replaced with Haitians.” WATCH YOUR CATS AND DOGS!!!

Adrenochrome Taskforce Rescues Hundreds of Kids Trafficked by Marina Abramovic Russian special forces have rescued hundreds of enslaved children from a factory farm in the Ukrainian Carpathian mountains, as President Putin’s campaign against the global adrenochrome industry intensifies. According to Russian sources involved in the raid, the bust that liberated hundreds of children was made possible by the infiltration of an adrenochrome party organized by Marina Abramovic and attended by elites in Paris, France. Ukraine is the global capital of the child sex trade and investigators warn it is home to a network of adrenochrome factories. Many children are born into the factory farm system, bred for slavery, without birth certificates or ID. These children never know what it is like to live a life without terror. However, the adrenochrome industry is growing so fast it requires a constantly growing supply of children to satisfy the urges of the elite pedophiles and addicts. This is why the streets of towns and cities across Ukraine are lined with missing children posters. Russian President Putin formed an elite adrenochrome task forced earlier this year, explaining that Zelensky’s Kiev regime has been earning hundreds of millions of dollars per year by keeping children in degrading factory farm conditions and selling them to the highest bidder on the international market – no questions asked. According to those on the ground in Ukraine, these children are sold as sex slaves to elite pedophiles and those who don’t find buyers are “carved up like discarded waste,” and their organs are harvested and sold for use at European and Israeli transplant centers. Last year Zelensky appointed Satanic witch Marina Abramovic to serve as ambassador to Ukraine and help rebuild the country’s schools for children. The so-called “performance artist” is infamous for being part of the Wikileaks document dump that revealed she sent an email to Hillary Clinton, John Podesta and his brother Tony inviting them to a “Spirit Cooking dinner,” which is an occult ritual made famous by the notorious Satanist Aleister Crowley. https://thepeoplesvoice.tv/adrenochrome-taskforce-rescues-hundreds-of-kids-trafficked-by-marina-abramovic/
