CO2 Given Priority in Military Decision Making?

Islamic State earns about $500 million a year from its oil revenues. But according to former CIA director Mike Morrell, US fighter aircraft have been ordered not to bomb their oil wells in case they cause “environmental damage.”

Yes. That makes sense. Clearly one of the main priorities in any war of attrition should be to do…

George Smith Continues to Pack Up with the Wind Crowd

Angus King, Adam Lee, Maureen Drouin, George Smith. What a crew.

Maureen Drouin, executive director of Maine Conservation Voters, heard Yearwood speak at a League of Conservation Voters national event and invited him to Maine. And I am so glad she did. His speech was provocative and challenging, for sure.

“The fossil fuel industry’s current business plan amounts to a death sentence for young people,” he said.…

"But first, U.S. Sen. Angus King, I-Maine, took the mic and provoked the thoughts of the crowd with a quick lesson in environmental ethics".

U.S. Senators Susan Collins and Angus King believe that Maine isn’t capitalizing enough on its ample hydropower, onshore wind and biomass resources, which are all valuable components to a thriving energy economy".

Donald Trump: Wind power 'kills all the birds'

After his press conference, Trump walked a second gauntlet of well-wishers on his way up the steps, encountering a home-schooled girl named Annabelle and her younger brother – both of whom came with written questions to ask the would-be president for an academic project. 'I've heard you think fracking is better than wind power. Why do you think that?' the girl asked him. 'It's better. You know it's better,' Trump told Annabelle. 'Because the windmills have their place, but they kill the…

NASA Shock Study: Antarctica Is Growing Not Shrinking

The study – by an organization not hitherto noted for playing down environmental scares – will come as a major blow climate alarmists.  For decades, they have cited Antarctica as one of the bellwethers of global warming catastrophe and have claimed – as the IPCC’s most recent Assessment Report did – that its land ice mass was slowly melting into the…

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.
