How The Trees Save Maine.

 Sharing electricity with dysfunctional states like Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut is absolutely absurd.
    Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island are pursuing offshore wind projects like their very existence depends on it. What an insane idea! And, it wouldn't be so bothersome to us in Maine, but, unfortunately, Maine, being a participant in ISO-NE, is adversely affected by what Southern New England elitists conjure up in the name of saving the…

CO2 Science

"One red flag that immediately pops up when focusing on this time period is the observation that, despite a consistent and near-exponential rise in atmospheric CO2 over the past 150 years, temperatures fluctuated between periods of both global warming and global cooling. In addition, it is difficult—if not impossible—for climate alarmists to adequately reconcile the fact that…

Maine Needs Courage.

   Maine is unique and  Maine people can be a fiercely independent sort about certain things, even when committed to sharing obligations and rewards with neighboring states.

   Maine people rejected the idea of a transmission line to supply 24/7 electricity into the grid Maine shares with the 5 other New England States. 
   Maine also is unique in defining renewable energy…

Electricity Prices by The Numbers

  ISO-NE informs us that the average wholesale price of electricity in April 2022 was $59.39 per Megawatt hour, or a 128.5% increase over April of 2021. So, what was the wholesale price of electricity in April 2021?

   Some algebra is required.
   59.39-X = 1.285X
            +X   =          +X
    59.39  = 1.285X + X
    59.39  = 2.285X
   X = 59.39/ 2.285…

CO2 Science

"Hello. I’m Dr. Craig Idso, Chairman of the Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change. In recent years, governments and elected officials at all levels have proposed or enacted regulations and laws designed to restrict the use of fossil fuels via tax, caps or fiat limits on CO2 emissions.
Such efforts are based upon the notion that CO2 emissions are polluting the atmosphere and causing dangerous global warming.…

This is Treason. Time to Admit Our Nation is Being Run by Domestic Terrorists and Traitors.

Stop trying to pretend this isn’t treason. It is. Stop trying to pretend this isn’t the purposeful, intentional destruction of America. It is.

Stop trying to pretend this is “politics as usual” or a “political disagreement.” It’s not. Stop trying to pretend everything is going to be all right. It’s not.

America is in a dire situation. I believe we are in the worst situation in the history…

British Mercenary Sentenced to Death in Donetsk Issues Warning

The Western Media presents the trial of the mercenaries in Ukraine as being invalid, Kangaroo Court, no "internationally recognized" jurisdiction, etc.

Such statements are made by the Western Media to inflame readers, and likely have no judicial basis.

These volunteers, mostly from NATO countries, signed contracts with the Ukraine government to fight for money, up to…

Request for Maine offshore wind power contract raises ratepayer concerns

The proposed contract's likely impact on Maine electricity customers is being shielded from public view, for now.

By Tux Turkel Staff Writer

EXCERPTS:

The developers of a planned offshore wind energy research array have asked state regulators to approve a 20-year electricity supply contract with terms they say are essential to their investing $1.2 billion in a project that could help launch a new renewable energy industry in Maine.

EV cost per mile

Yesterday I watched the ignorant Sen. Stabenow pontificate about how she drove to DC passed many gas stations in her new EV. I had been in Farmington at Hannaford looking at the charging stations. An empty Prius was parked at the station whose price per KWH was.40 Plus a flat additional charge if you were hooked up for more than 20 minutes. The other. stations were all Teslas and seemed to indicate a price of .625 KWH My all in. rate at home (CMP). is .2331 KWH.

Biden waives solar tariffs in massive win for China

One thing after the other.

“It shows that the Biden administration policy, in this space in particular, is Build Back Beijing,” Nick Iacovella, a spokesperson for the pro-tariff group Coalition for a Prosperous America, told The Daily Caller News Foundation in an interview. “There’s no other way to describe it. They haven’t done a single thing to support U.S. solar manufacturers.”

“All of this boils back down to — if you allow the Chinese to dump subsidized product in…

We’re Now in the Last Stage of a Tyrannical Takeover

Our beloved country has undergone a coup d'etat disguised as incompetence with the 99% controlled media telling us we are bad people if we challenge things like transgender education for kindergarteners or the proven election steal in November 2020.  It is time to get vocal, very vocal. The left says that silence is violence. Frankly, as our nation falls, silence is self-inflicted violence.…

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.

Hannah Pingree on the Maine expedited wind law
