Default Poptech spam

In several recent threads in the Energy & Environment forum, Poptech has printed reams & reams of links to support his/her case but without specifying the specific text in the vast majority of cases.
Poptech has repeated many of these links between different threads and even in repeated some in the same threads.
For example, from one thread I collected the following list of links :-
(there may be more in that thread but I gave up before it played itself out)
