Solar power expansion to decline for first time in 2026, it’s signal to retreat from unreliable energy promises

Global solar installations are projected to decline for the first time. Policy shifts in China and the U.S. are driving the slowdown. High-profile, taxpayer-funded solar projects have failed.
Solar's intermittent nature causes grid instability and blackouts. The decline signals a market verdict on solar's reliability.

The global green energy revolution is hitting a wall. For the first time since solar power emerged as a major force, worldwide installations are projected to decline next year, exposing the deep flaws and inherent unreliability of a technology sold as our clean energy future.

According to a new outlook from BloombergNEF, developers will add 649 gigawatts of solar capacity in 2026, a slight drop from the 655 GW expected this year. This follows 2025’s weakest growth in seven years, marking a stunning reversal after decades of breakneck expansion.

This isn't just a minor market correction; it is a direct reflection of reality catching up with the hype. The decline is driven by major policy shifts in the world's two largest solar markets, China and the United States, where the economic and practical shortcomings of solar are becoming impossible to ignore. After years of government-mandated build-outs, these nations are pulling back as the true cost of solar dependency becomes clear.

The US is implementing innovations at a record pace

There are 62 technology companies in the US with net annual profits exceeding $1 billion — significantly more than in any other country in the world.

This is more than four times as many as in the world's second-largest economy, China, which has only 15 such technology companies.

The US also has 21 more global technology companies than China, Japan, Taiwan, and the eurozone combined.

Eight of the world's 10 largest companies are American technology corporations.

In addition, eight of the world's 10 most innovative companies are based in the US.

Massive Chinese military buildup threatens U.S.

Annual report details aggressive new nuclear attack posture, hypersonic missile development and aircraft carrier construction

The Chinese military is continuing a massive, decades-long arms buildup, including a shift in nuclear force doctrine that increases the danger of a direct attack on the U.S., according to the Pentagon’s annual China military power report.

“China’s historic military buildup has made the U.S. homeland increasingly vulnerable,” the report states. “China maintains a large and growing arsenal of nuclear, maritime, conventional long-range strike, cyber and space capabilities able to directly threaten Americans’ security,” the report says.

The annual assessment, made public Tuesday, warns that the People’s Liberation Army continues to progress toward its 2027 modernization goals that include preparations for using force to annex Taiwan and threatening nuclear strikes on the United States to prevent American forces from intervening in a defense of the self-ruled island.

The Trump administration’s relations with China are “stronger” than they have been in many years, the report stated in an introduction. It noted that the U.S. does not seek to “strangle, dominate, or humiliate China.”

Parents must quit infighting to keep kids safe online

Last week, Australia’s social media ban for children under age 16 officially took effect. It remains to be seen how this law will shape families' behavior; however, it’s at least a stand against the tech takeover of childhood.

Here in the U.S., however, we're in a different boat — a consensus on what's best for kids feels much harder to come by among both lawmakers and parents.

In order to make true progress on this issue, we must resist the fallacy of parental individualism – that what you choose for your own child is up to you alone. That it’s a personal, or family, decision to allow smartphones, or certain apps, or social media. But it’s not a personal decision.

The choice you make for your family and your kids affects them and their friends, their friends' siblings, their classmates, and so on. If there is no general consensus around parenting decisions when it comes to tech, all kids are affected.

According to More in Common, which recently surveyed parents in the U.S., U.K., France and Poland on their thoughts and experiences around online safety, 65% of U.S. parents are “very” concerned about their kids’ safety online, and another 28% are “somewhat” concerned (leaving 7% of parents not that concerned at all – a troubling number, even if it seems low).

Global nuclear arms control under pressure in 2026

The fragile global legal framework for nuclear weapons control faces further setbacks in 2026, eroding guardrails to avoid a nuclear crisis.

The first half of the year will see two key events: the US-Russia bilateral treaty, New START, expires on February 5, and in April, New York hosts the Review Conference (RevCon) of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) — the cornerstone of global nuclear security frameworks.

The RevCon, held every four to five years, is meant to keep the NPT alive. But during the last two sessions, the 191 signatory states failed to agree on a final document, and experts expect the same outcome in April.

“I think this is going to be a difficult RevCon,” said Alexandra Bell, head of US-based global security nonprofit the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, at a UN-hosted online conference in early December. “In terms of the current state and near future prospects of nuclear arms control architecture, things are bleak,” she added.

The video shows London in the evening

According to research by political scientist Matt Goodwin (University of Buckingham), based on data from the Office for National Statistics, the percentage of white English people in the country is rapidly declining.

Today, they make up 73% of the population, in 2050 it will be 57%, and in 2063 - 49%.

By 2100, they will account for less than 34%.

White people are already a minority in London and Birmingham, and this will soon be the case in Manchester and Bradford.

White schoolchildren are already a minority in 25% of schools.

There are quite a few schools where there are no white students at all.

It is hypothesized that this demographic trend will not change until the end of this century.

Demographic challenges in the us are intensifying!

The number of American families with children under the age of 18 has fallen to 33 million, the lowest since 1993.

Since 2008, the number of such families has decreased by approximately 3 million, despite the US population growing by 36 million. This contrasts with the post-war demographic boom, when family formation was on the rise.

The main reasons are declining birth rates and an aging population. Over time, this could have a negative impact on labor force growth, economic development, and social program spending. The US may face a real demographic crisis.

Dems lost working-class voters’ trust

Thanks to decades of failing to seriously address the economic struggles of ordinary Americans, the Democratic Party brand has cratered in the Rust Belt and is increasingly flagging with working-class voters of all races.

As the 2026 midterm elections approach, the question of why Democrats have increasingly struggled with working-class voters — and why Donald Trump’s Republican Party has been able to make inroads with them — is becoming more urgent.

The survey found that voters are hungry for candidates running on ambitious, economic populist platforms. It also found that voters tend to penalize candidates merely for identifying as Democrats, showing the extent to which the party brand has been tarnished in the region.

That loss of working-class support has not been confined to the Rust Belt, however, or to white voters, as was once imagined; more and more Latino voters have also been moving to the Right.

Major signs of another coming Dark Age — collapsing the West could make history repeat

Western civilization arose in Greece in the 8th century BC, when some 1,500 city-states emerged from a murky, illiterate 400-year-old Dark Age. That chaos followed the utter collapse of the palatial culture of Mycenaean Greece.

But what reemerged were constitutional government, rationalism, liberty, freedom of expression, self-critique and free markets — what we know now as the foundation of a unique Western civilization. The Roman Republic inherited and enhanced the Greek model.

For a millennium, the republic and subsequent Roman Empire spread Western culture, eventually to be inseparable from Christianity.

From the Atlantic to the Persian Gulf and from the Rhine and Danube to the Sahara were a million square miles of safety, prosperity, progress and science — until the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century AD.

The slow rebirth was later energized by the humanists and scientists of the Renaissance, the Reformation, and eventually the 200-year European Enlightenment of the 17th and 18th centuries.

Contemporary Americans do not believe that our current civilization could self-destruct a third time in the West, followed by an impoverished and brutal Dark Age.

Legal Migration's Hidden Price Tag: £39 Billion and Counting for Family Visas

UK taxpayers have received a fresh bill from the Home Office. According to their calculations, supporting the foreign partners of British citizens has cost the treasury £39.2 billion over the past six years. This refers to 359,400 people who came to the country on family visas between 2018 and 2024.

These are not illegal immigrants, but those who arrived more or less officially.

The UK has, of course, redefined the concept of “hospitality.” Now it is not when a guest brings wine and flowers, but when a taxpayer pays for their education, healthcare, and social assistance for years. The irony is that a country that fights tooth and nail for “border sovereignty” has in fact acquired the world's most expensive subnoscription to “family reunification.”

In Germany, organized crime is increasingly using minors as perpetrators. They are tasked with arson, explosions, and torture, according to an investigation by the STRG_F project.

Journalists met in the Netherlands with a man believed to be one of the organizers of such crimes. He calls himself a “murder broker”: according to him, he connects clients with those who are willing to commit crimes.

The man claims that even teenagers as young as 12 are recruited for explosions and contract killings. The pay is minimal, and sometimes the perpetrators are willing to act for free. “Sometimes they literally beg to be given a job. It's crazy, it's hard to believe,” said the interviewee.

The investigation states that most often these are teenagers with a history of migration. The authors compare this practice to the use of “child soldiers” in conflict zones in Africa and point out that such methods are increasingly being used in Europe. According to journalists, Sweden was the first alarming example, and now the trend is spreading to other countries.

Belgium’s ‘population replacement’: only 10.5% are Belgians of Belgian origin

The demographic changes across Europe are immense, with ethnic, indigenous Europeans rapidly being replaced. As Remix News has noted, this is apparent in cities like Vienna, Austria, but perhaps some of the most stark developments are taking place in Brussels, Belgium.

The data there shows that in Brussels, 72.9% of children and youth aged 0-17 have a migration background from outside the European Union or were born outside the EU, according to StatBel, the official government statistic organization.

Remarkably, only 10.56% in this age group are Belgians of exclusively Belgian origin. In response, Belgian MP Filip Dewinter has referred to “population replacement,” which he argues is not a “conspiracy,” but clearly demonstrated by the data.

Many critics have stated that Brussels had such a high percentage of foreign youths because citizens from other EU nations had moved to the capital. However, the data shows that nearly all the youth in the capital city now belong to non-EU nations.

How illegal immigration and government failure fuel identity theft

More than a million Americans may unwittingly hold second jobs – because that work is being performed by an illegal alien using their stolen social security number.

News of the identity theft can come as a rude shock to citizens like the Minnesota factory worker who had crushing tax bills because of a thrice-deported illegal immigrant in Missouri who was working under his name for years. Or Iowa taxpayers who learned that the superintendent of the Des Moines school system was an illegal immigrant facing a deportation order.

More likely, they may never know that their identity was pilfered, perhaps by one of the 70 illegal workers accused last summer of stealing more than 100 identities so they could work at a Nebraska meatpacking plant, or by one of the 18 individuals charged with “aggravated identity theft, misuse of Social Security numbers, and false statements” in March.

While the crimes may seem innocuous or something committed more in cyberspace than in everyday life, they are far from victimless law-breaking. Studies show that identity theft can often lead not just to financial pressures, but also emotional and physical stress.

The elite are selling a lie and the people know it

It is a supreme irony that the nations we once celebrated as the cradles of liberal democracy—the United Kingdom, the “mother of parliaments”—are now the very places where we see the most alarming creep of totalitarianism. We were raised to believe that the West was the home of liberty, yet today, we are witnessing a war from the top against the bottom.

This is not the totalitarianism of the 20th century, with its marching boots and overt dictators. It is something more insidious. It is a system where the ruling class, knowing that their policies—from Net Zero to mass migration—are fundamentally opposed to the interests of their own people, must enforce their will through ever-stricter control. They know that what they are selling is a lie, and because the public knows it too, the only option left is to silence the dissent.

We see this most clearly in the radicalisation of the youth. The establishment wrings its hands over why young people in Europe are turning to “extreme” parties or demanding mass deportations. But the explanation is simple.

Imagine you go to a doctor with a minor condition. He dismisses it, tells you not to worry. You go back a year later, the condition has worsened, but he still offers you nothing but an aspirin. By the time he finally admits there is a problem, the disease has metastasized. Now, an aspirin won’t work; you need chemotherapy or radiation.
