Study: Wind Farm Would Reduce Vacation Home Rentals by More Than Half

This news, of course, comes as no surprise to Mainers who have seen real estate sales and rentals decimated by industrial wind projects - despite all the rigged government and wind industry studies that claim no adverse effects on property values.

“Over 50 percent of those surveyed indicated that they would not return to the same beach for their next rental should a utility-scale wind farm be placed offshore,” the report…

Time to Revisit the Way Maine Assesses Financial Capacity of Wind Developers

First Wind, forced wind, failed wind.........Decommisioning funds are wholly inadequate. When the subsidies run out, wind developers will walk away from their taxpayer money harvesting contraptions leaving a befouled Maine landscape. And the legislature is not doing anything about it. In fact, a predecessor legislature and a wind insider Gov Baldacci caused this scourge. The wind company "executives" will move onto their next fast buck somewhere and the so called Maine environmental groups…

Another Climate Alarmist Admits Real Motive Behind Warming Scare

Investor's Business Daily

“We redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy,” said Edenhofer.

For those who want to believe that maybe Edenhofer just misspoke and doesn’t really mean that, consider that a little more than five years ago he also said that “the next world climate summit in Cancun is actually an economy summit during which the distribution of the world’s resources will be negotiated.”…

Intermittent Power Versus Baseload Power

As you read the following statement from an ISO-NE official, think about how wind gets it's revenues. 

"Adding wind, hydro, and solar to the grid is expected to result in lower energy prices when the wind is blowing, the water is flowing, or the sun is shining. This will reduce the inframarginal rents earned by all resources during these hours, and may have significant effects on the net revenues of baseload resources for which the energy is the primary revenue resource."

Attorney: Wind in Maine is a Growth Area for Lawyers (Maine Law Review)

Apalled Environment Maine Letter Writer Seemingly Involved in Typical Orchestrated Effort

Seems this renewable energy "advocate" wrote very much the same letter for Environment Maryland! in the Baltimore Sun and the Delaware Gazette. Also the BDN.

As these events continue to increase in frequency and intensity, we need states like Maryland to continue to act boldly in slashing global warming pollution. Maryland's next step should include strengthening the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative to reduce regional power plant pollution by more than half in the…

Two Bit California Senator is Just the Beginning . . . . The Grand Poohba of Climate has Chimed In!!!!!

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the news from a few days ago is "old news".  It looks like the "wealth distributors" are determined to shut down any and all criticism of their phony scheme by making it so cost prohibitive to fight them that they will win. I can't tell you how furious this makes me.  It is pure communism disguised in a green coat or as James Delingpole wrote, the Watermelon People . . . Green on the outside, Red in the middle.  This article exposes it for what it is,…

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.
