- Mills would rescind LePage’s ban, and is supportive of well-sited wind projects to cut fossil fuel demand.

- Moody’s position is more in line with LePage. He expresses concern for visual impacts around the Moosehead and Rangeley lakes regions, for instance. “We can’t be shortsighted in promoting the wind industry at the expense of our tourism industry,” he says.

- Caron says he wants to “move carefully,” gaining a better understanding…

"Noise Assessment 10/15/18 "DOA" - Institute of Noise Control Engineering Not Protecting Their Profession From Less Qualified Individuals"



On October 15, 2018, the Town of Falmouth received a report given at a public meeting from an engineering consulting firm to move Falmouth Wind II to a new location. The report failed to include a third private owned Vestas wind turbine located nearby the…

Falmouth Wind Turbine Litigation One of the Longest In Massachusetts History

The ongoing trials and subsequent appeals process look to make this one of the longest civil lawsuits in Massachusetts…

Thank you,Christopher Hyde for explaining so well why dams are bad and contribute to...not help eliminate...unclean power and are just no damn good!

1. NO hydroelectric dam is without environmental consequences. One reservoir, the size of Connecticut (about the size of some built by Hydro Quebec) displaces entire forests of CO2-absorbing trees.

2. No fish grown in these waters are edible, because of mercury contamination.

3. Hydro-Power can replace some fossil fuel generated…

Dear County and State Leaders,

We are a group of 4,000+ members, including concerned Maine Residents and Taxpayers, from diverse backgrounds who are opposed to CMP’s proposed New England Clean Energy Connect Project. NECEC is a 145-mile transmission line that would installed from Beattie Township on the Canadian Border through the Boundary Mountains, under the Kennebec River gorge, and expand existing corridor south to Lewiston. A new substation would be constructed in Pownal,…

The events set the stage for the first of four meetings starting Friday at the Maine Public Utilities Commission, one of the regulators that must approve the New England Clean Energy Connect project.

“The hearings that start Friday are to hear from and ask questions of the witnesses from the parties in the case,” said Harry Lanphear, the commission’s administrative director. The witnesses and intervenors formally applied for…

Last Year’s New England Winter Was Brutal on the Energy Grid. Get Ready for Worse.

Posted to Energy October 17, 2018 by Michael Graham

The New England region will be the hardest hit—right in the wallet– due to the region’s disproportionate reliance on home heating oil. The EIA anticipates that propane prices will remain flat, electricity costs will rise 3 percent and natural…

By Sherri Lange -- October 17, 2018

“The wind industry has denied and ignored evidence directly linking wind turbines and sleep disruption leading to negative human and animal impacts worldwide. Expect WHO’s new Guidelines to give rise to new standards to mitigate if not eliminate this ongoing suffering.”

“The burden of environmental noise with wind turbines is not episodic or random: for the most part its effects are constant and unrelenting…. This is an…

An excellent four minute video.

As one poster wrote:

"Whenever energy has become cheaper and more plentiful, even the poorest of humans live like the kings of the previous generation, and difficult problems become easy to solve. Environmentalists want to reverse that progress. They see only the potential future problems with current energy technologies, but refuse to see the potential future solutions that come from greater energy availability. We should be doing…
