I think it is time we watched this video again.

My friend Tom Olds and I created this a few years ago...and it is startling (and depressing) to realize how many of the rural landscapes which are showcased in this video have been lost to industrial wind development since that time.

Lincoln (Rollins Mountain, Rocky Dundee, at the hands of First Wind/SunEdison), Saddleback (Patriot Renewables), Roxbury/Record Hill (Angus King/Independence Wind), Oakfield (First Wind/SunEdison),…

Indeed.

The wind power virus rapidly spreading through Maine is but a symptom of a larger systemic infection of corruption and deceit in the nation today. There's a reason that anger has been deemed politically incorrect. They don't want angry citizens but rather docile sheep from whom they can steal.…

Vermonters in Full-Scale Open Rebellion Against Planned Wind Turbine Roll-Out

An Act To Amend Maine's Restructuring Laws

Sec. 1. 35-A MRSA §3204, sub-§5,  as enacted by PL 1997, c. 316, §3, is repealed.…

How big a deal was Congress extending the renewable energy tax credits? A VERY VERY BIG DEAL!!!!

Again we got screwed by Harry Reid when he said the whole deal would fall through for the release of oil sales abroad if the PTC and ITC were not extended to drive renewable energy.  So we take it on the chin for a phony scam promoting wind and solar for probably another decade…

Why Do We Have To Be The Industrial Center For New England???

The southern New England states are making deal to desecrate more of our hills and mountains with wind turbines and build transmission lines to get the power there.  The plan calls for the builders to send the bill to those southern states, but we all know if 1 kw of…

So Now the plans become clearer - Maine wind energy project are not so Maine can meet the renewable energy goals spelled out in the Expedited Wind Law. Maine wind energy is so others can meet their renewable goals!  Are we expected to foot the bill for transmission?  CMP already snuck one by us with their $1.4 billion "smart" meter upgrade - And now that CMP has been moved to Avangrid, Iberdrola's holding company, Iberdrola appears to be free to develop projects like Atlantic Wind in…

Maine's potential in restoring hydro is at least twice as much as New Hampshires.  Here's a video showing one installation http://www.granitestatehydro.org/about-us.html

Emera sees a bright future for renewable energy in Northern Maine.  Let's hope they don't try to stick ratepayers with the transmission cost!

MA former Executive Energy Secretary Ian Bowle's has written an op-ed for CommonWealth boasting the sacrifice of ME's citizens, and the sacrifice of the treasured integrity of Maine's mountains and viewscapes, for the benefit of Massachusetts residents.  

I hope that some reading this will consider responding to this op-ed:   …

Oh, Paulie? Won't see him no more...

According to UBS, Paul Gaynor (former First Wind CEO) has also departed, although this was not disclosed in the 8K filing. "Given Paul's former role as CEO of First Wind, we continue to perceive growing risk to execution on…
