The Energy Freedom Platform Energy Talking Points by Alex Epstein

The solution is Energy Freedom—the idea that individuals should be free to produce and consume energy how they judge best,…

Big wind farms planned in far Northern Maine could benefit Mass.

A measure tucked into the state’s climate bill would allow Mass. to plug into wind energy being proposed in the northernmost reaches of Maine.

By Jon Chesto Globe Staff,Updated August 9, 2022, 5:53 p.m.

The hottest clean-energy contest currently underway in New England doesn’t involve offshore wind farms, at least not this time. Instead of the waters south of Martha’s Vineyard, this race to tap into…

Cliamte Crapola II

Climate Crapola II | The Calais Advertiser

One front of the climate alarmist war on fossil fuels, freedom and prosperity is the effort to force companies to state the financial “risks” the climate “crisis” presents. This mischief has taken place not in rulemaking at the Environmental Protection Agency, but rather at the Securities and Exchange Commission and in political lawsuits filed by virtue signaling leftist…

Breitbart — Bruce Poliquin: Rep. Jared Golden Enables Democrat Agenda by ‘Allowing Pelosi to Have the Gavel’

Rep. Jared Golden (D-ME) may defect from his party on certain votes, but he furthers the Democrat agenda simply by helping the party to maintain its slim majority, former Rep. Bruce Poliquin (R-ME) said during an appearance on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Saturday.

Poliquin, who is aiming to unseat Golden in Maine’s battleground Second District, contended that Golden — despite voting no on most but not all of President Joe Biden’s multiple behemoth spending packages — “is a big…

The Scales Have Tipped Towards NECEC as a Must Project

  Intuitively speaking, one might think 1200 megawatts of solid hydro-powered electricity could help reduce wholesale electric prices, especially when natural gas-fired plants are stretched to the max. 

   A review of Friday's and Saturday's wholesale market data as displayed on the ISO-NE Express Website confirms that the excessive demand brought on by the oppressive heat of the past two days sent the price of electricity up by 36%, Saturday and up 42% on Friday as the last…

Schumer-Manchin: A terror unleashed. By Lisa Linowes

"The environmental destruction that will be left by developers marching across the country carpeting our ridgelines and open lands with 600-foot spinning turbines, solar panels, substations, and miles of high voltage transmission is impossible to quantify. Habitats will be degraded and destroyed, viewsheds industrialized, and wildlife killed or displaced. Federal and state agencies will be hamstrung by new permitting rules – also part of Schumer-Manchin – that will impair their…

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT

******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********

(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/

Sign up today and lend your voice and presence to the steadily rising tide that will soon sweep the scourge of useless and wretched turbines from our beloved Maine countryside. For many of us, our little pieces of paradise have been hard won. Did the carpetbaggers think they could simply steal them from us?

We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
