Lance Tapley: Is Mills for Real on Climate Change?

.......Gov. Janet Mills got a lot of attention when she stood before the United Nations General Assembly’s Climate Action Summit on September 23 and announced she had signed an executive order pledging Maine to become “carbon neutral” by 2045.

Problem is, it’s too easy a goal to achieve. We’re either close to it or already there. That’s because of our vast forest, which covers 89 percent of the state. The trees’ photosynthesis process absorbs carbon dioxide from the air.

Thus, Mills, a Democrat, laid out a “wimpy” goal, said Michael Kellett, head of the environmental group RESTORE: The North Woods, which for years has been pushing for a giant national park in the no

Lance Tapley would by my estimation would be classified as opinionated educated idiot! His fake news opinion serves to point the population to subservient lifestyle to the all controlling  government. Windmills and solar panel are made in China, both are a nightmare to recycle as there is much that requires special handling, like the PCB laden oil in the turbines. And with an estimated 14,000 hulks of dead windmills nation wide, the more that are erected the more rusting hulks Maine will have on top of destroyed mountain tops in the near future! More eco-destruction with little benefit!

After watching the 9-11 video below, I firmly believe there is a concentrated effort afoot to "fundamentally change the direction" of our country (where have I heard that before?) and make us over into a top down controlled populace. That is one that our lives will be controlled from the crooked politicians in Washington. They have proven themselves to be criminals over and over . . . How does a man who has NOTHING, not even a valid credit card when elected, to buying a $50 million house on a very expensive island in 8 years? How do the children of a career politician get over a billion dollars? How do most of the Senators and Congressmen walk away from Washington with far more than they went in with? All this is NOT what our founders envisioned 230 years ago. Term limits is the only thing we can do to solve this. Nobody should make their life's work being a master of the population. They begin at some point to believe they have all the answers when they have NONE! The government we have is what we deserve if we don't do something about it.

The media are controlled....owned. The lies they tell us about climate change and the efficacy of wind power, is no more real than the lies they told us about the JFK assassination and what happened on 9/11/01.

It's time to save our country and have a working watchdog media, not a controlled propagandist for the controlling class.

Watch the following and realize how badly we have been had.

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/
