The state House of Representatives on Wednesday rejected legislation that would have authorized the state to build an offshore wind terminal on Sears Island, an initial step in Maine’s foray into the wind energy industry.
In a blow to Gov. Janet Mills, who …

Maine has an electricity supply problem. Non-cooperative weather breaking down the physical delivery system is getting more frequent and widespread. Our utilities are trying to keep up, but the trees get in the way. A state that is 90% canopied by forest growth should not have any adversity towards cleaning out weak, dead, and obviously old and unsteady trees away from power lines. How many standby household generators are called to operate as the power is interrupted and restoration…

The Louisiana State Senate voted unanimously on Senate Bill 133 to ensure that the three-headed hydra of globalist chunder, the United Nations (UN), the World Health Organization (WHO), and Klaus Schwab's World Economic Forum (WEF) will never have sway in the Pelican State. The bill still needs to pass the Louisiana House.

Despite the benefits of nuclear power, and despite Maine Gov. Janet Mills’ oft-repeated goal of getting Maine to 100 percent renewable energy, the Mills Administration and the Democrat-controlled legislature have shunned nuclear power.
Maine’s only nuclear power plant, the Maine Yankee Nuclear Power Plant, was shuttered after several attempts to ban nuclear power from the state via ballot initiative. At the time, the needed upgrades…

Continue“It is entirely possible that the total costs to build, maintain and replace units every 20+ years (at end of service) would be prohibitive compared to other sources of energy. Beyond these cost considerations, sources indicate that the turbine blades cannot be recycled and are piling up in landfills. Fossil fuels will also still be needed to maintain the lubrication of these units, and what about…

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.
