What Kind of Tourism Office Would Stand By As Moosehead Lake is Devastated?

Our friends at AOL business just published a list with all 50 (or is it 57) states and how they stack up as far as "renewables" are concerned. Vermont is # 1 and Maine is # 5. Interesting, however, is the fact that all the top 10 list HYDRO as the reason they are renewable winners. The ones touting wind and solar are in places where there is little running water and are much further down the list. I think we are missing a huge opportunity to take Maine back to a state where hydro powered…

Everyone always hears the windies speaking highly of the way Denmark is making all their energy with wind power. Well, that's not entirely true, and it looks like the bloom is off the Rose. Seems they only produce 38% of their energy from wind and that dropped because they decommissioned more turbines than they built. They have a land mass a little bigger than the state of Maryland and wind turbines, covering a great deal of the land and the waters surrounding it only produce 5.2 GW of…

How about some reporting on all the corruption that supports Maine wind and its requisite new transmission?

The people of Mass are facing the same unreasonable issues we are here in Maine and all because of their ill conceived idea that they don't want a gas line going through their wilderness areas.
