Joe Biden’s plan to convert 50% of the U.S. vehicle fleet from internal combustion engines to electricity by 2050 to fight climate change ignores a serious danger in doing so. Recent events around the world reveal that fire catastrophes from electric vehicles (EVs) are not only possible, but increasingly likely. The fire risk of the lithium-ion batteries that these EVs rely on for power is well documented, as they have been known to spontaneously combust in the most inopportune times and…

The two Nantucket women said they were suing the federal government because they wanted to save the North Atlantic right whale from offshore wind. Then a former member of President Trump’s EPA transition team stepped to the microphone to commend them for their bravery.
“They did it voluntarily,” David Stevenson, the former Trump adviser, said of the women. “They’re not getting anything out of this other than trying to…

Fear not. There are many, many more of us than those supporting the criminals who are presently running things. There's no more time for silence though. Speak up. This is still America. As the title of Eric Clapton's video says, "This Has Gotta Stop".

Noise from wind farms may be more bothersome at night than it is during the day – and not only for the reasons you might expect.
While it’s true that competing sources of background noise (such as traffic) tend to die down at night, and people are more likely to notice sounds when they’re trying to fall asleep, scientists in Australia have found that physics as well as psychology plays a role in wind-farm-induced sleep disturbances.
According to…

Energy systems analysts of Denmark, Ireland, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands, etc., have known for decades, if you have a significant percentage of (wind + solar) on your grid, you better have available:
- An adequate capacity, MW, of other power plants to counteract any variations of (W+S), 24/7/365
- High-capacity, MW, connections to nearby grids
- An adequate capacity of energy storage, such as:
1) Pumped hydro storage
2) Hydro plants…

A group of “concerned citizens” say they plan to file a lawsuit on Wednesday aimed at stopping the nation’s first utility-scale offshore wind project and others slated to follow.
Nantucket Residents Against Turbines is attempting to first stop Vineyard Wind, which plans to build at least 62 wind turbines 15 miles off the coast of…

CBS beclowning itself? Surely I jest, right? Yeah, no. The flagship of “mainstream” media news went there. The network of Edward R. Murrow on Friday claimed climate change has helped “strengthen” the Taliban, which has now brutally taken over Afghanistan and trapped…

Online commenters held back nothing: "Birds exploding in mid air? You have to be one of the stupidest persons I have every come across," claimed Tom Kirkman. Lennie Seaman added, "Exploding birds? Did you not go to school when you were still capable of rational thought?"
However, the problem that remained was that Gohmert's concerns were true, and valid.
The BizPacReview report explained members of the far left fell for the mistake because, as Ruy Teixeria, a political…

AUGUSTA, Maine — The Maine Department of Environmental Protection said Thursday that it may pull its permit of the $1 billion hydropower corridor through western Maine after a judge’s contested ruling that put the project’s route at risk.
Commissioner Melanie Loyzim told the Central Maine Power Co. affiliate overseeing the corridor’s construction that the department may suspend or revoke its permit after a…

Joe Biden just went cap in hand to the nations of OPEC for oil, as US workers sit waiting to produce the same product.
This proves the Democrats’ ideologically driven green agenda is unworkable, unpatriotic and unacceptable.
Imagine, for a moment, you are an oil worker from Texas. Every day when you get up and turn on the news as you drink your coffee, it seems there is an ever-growing hostility toward your…

The speakers on right now, August 12, 2021 at 1PM Eastern, just compared voting machines to wind turbines.
They pointed out that wind turbines in Texas, which came close to crashing their grid, did not come about because they were good but rather that a constellation of regulations, tax rules, economic incentives, suppression of energy…

Politicians and politics have brought us the monstrous wind turbines and transmission that are proliferating in Maine at the expense of taxpayers, ratepayers and the state's natural beauty. It is not only the wind developers who have lied to us about the efficacy of wind turbines, but also politicians, regulators, environmental groups, academia and the media. Frankly, wind and the current Twilight Zone state of affairs in America today have…

According to a new Rasmussen poll, only 32% of likely U.S. voters think the country is headed in the right direction. Given how dismal the state of our Union is, it’s hard to believe nearly one in three inclined to vote think the present track is satisfactory.
Even more incredible is why we’re so seriously off course. After six months of the Biden-Harris administration, its basically an unbroken record of failures in every area which cannot be attributed to sheer…

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.
