"While Americans broadly support renewable energy, polls show, they are less enthusiastic about having it in their backyard.

Continue“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…

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…

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…

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…

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 electric demand peaks at a little over 2000 Megawatts.
The addition of King Pine Wind Project to Maine's wind portfolio will eclipse peak demand OR fail to produce a kilowatt at peak demand.

A frightening commentary form the Last Refuge/Conservative Treehouse on the use of AI to comb (like Spiders) the internet and remove or shadowban content that is unacceptable to the regime. It may sound farfetched or have the air of a conspiracy theory, but i'ts not and it's already in motion. The partnership between the government (namely Homeland Security) and Big Tech is growing daily with the objective of total control of the internet. They're preparing for a broader deployment before…

Maui is the home of massive wind farms and needed transmission lines. Indeed,Maui is now utilizing unreliable intermittent wind as a prime source of power. The Kaheawa 1 and 2 projects,Auhuahi turbines and Hawaii Wind and Solar tower over the island of Maui. We all know a maze of transmission lines is needed to transmit this low density source of power all over the island. Be sure to listen to the cause of the catastrophe,and it was not man made global warming,it may indeed have…

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.
