By Vijay Jayaraj

 

On August 23, India landed a craft near the Moon’s South Pole – an historic feat matched only by three other countries and made possible by the subcontinent’s largely uninhibited use of abundant, low-cost fossil fuels.…

Tucker Carlson: What Happened To Building 7? (Real Clear Politics)

"Anything You're Not Allowed To Ask About Is Something You Should Ask About"

Posted By Tim Hains

On Date May 1, 2023

TUCKER CARLSON: They’re not offended by conspiracy theories. If you go on TV tonight and say, "I think the Earth is flat," people just laugh at you. They don't care if you think the Earth is flat. It's not a threat to anyone.

But if you say, like, "What actually happened with Building 7? Like, that is weird, right? It doesn't -- like, what is…

Where the hell is wind and solar?

 "New England ratepayers faced $536 million in extra charges over 13  months to keep a soon-to-be-retired Massachusetts natural gas plant running in case of regional power shortages, according to grid operator ISO-New England."

NRCM, concerned for Katahdin's shadows, but their support for wind projects in the area likely if history is a guide (Webinar Tonight 7-8pm)

It would seem that NRCM doesn't want mining damage in Maine even though its support of EV's which it arguably wants mandated for Maine drivers, necessitates tremendous amounts of mining in places like the Congo. In fact their politically correct EV's require some 500,000 pounds of earth to be dug up for each battery.

'MANTRA OF THE RADICAL LEFT - Never let a crisis go to waste'

Sen. Mark Lawrence, (D) Co-Chair, Energy, Utilities, and Technology Committee, who sponsored the law, said:

Maine wind woes in the NY Times - The “clean energy future” is roiling both friends and foes

Adding 1000 MW King Pine Wind and Maine gets Texas Sized Problems

Wind Output Plaguing Texas (ERCOT weathers on)

By Ed Ireland -- August 21, 2023

“Failures of wind and solar during severe weather events are a problem, but a larger problem is that failures are not confined to severe winter storms. In fact, these failures occur on a daily and even hourly basis. During the summer months, wind tends to die down in the afternoons, causing large drops in…

Biden may declare a 'national climate emergency' to further the Green New Deal by non-democratic means: 'Just like COVID'

Joseph MacKinnon

August 21, 2023

Democrats have had trouble advancing the whole of their radical Green New Deal by democratic means, so they're now calling upon President Joe Biden to invoke abstract threats and exploit real tragedies to get their way.

Proponents of the climate alarmist legislation that would see the state's power grow further at the expense of the populace were not placated in the least by the green handouts resultant of last year's "Inflation Reduction…

Understanding The Parasitic Cooperation Between Globalists And Leftists

At a minimum, this is interesting.

by Brandon Smith

August 20th 2023

I have to admit that in my efforts to analyze and dissect far-left/globalist ideologies and agendas I have come to a point where I am just as fascinated as I am horrified.

Consider for a moment the progressive “intersectional” narrative which we often refer to as “woke”: It’s not an activist movement because they already have equal rights under the law. It’s…

Texas Power Prices Surge 6,000% as Grid Operator Asks Residents to Reduce Energy Usage Due to ‘Low Wind Generation’

by Cristina Laila

Aug. 19, 2023 4:40 pm

Earlier this week Texas grid operator ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) asked residents to reduce energy usage amid a sweltering heat wave to avoid rolling blackouts.

ERCOT manages electric power to more than 26 million Texas customers and represents 90% of the state’s electric load, according to the company.

Temperatures soared to 115+ degrees with the heat index in parts of Texas on Thursday amid an excessive…

The EV as a Tool of Class Oppression

August 18, 2023

It’s interesting that the pushing of EVs comes from the Left. Didn’t the Left used to rail about the rich oppressing the average person? The worker?

Well, how does the EV not do exactly that?

Are they not pushing average people – workers! – out of the market for new cars by increasing the cost of an”electrified” new car by 30-50 percent? (Plus the cost to insure it – which goes up in proportion to the replacement cost of…

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.
