China Abandons Clean Energy Goals Making US Efforts Painful And Pointless

Tuesday, Aug 15, 2023

Authored by Mike Shedlock via MishTalk.com,

Bidenomics and the EPA have America on a path of inflationary and environmental madness that’s all pain and no gain...

Three Key Takeaways

China has repeatedly stated that it has no intention of going along with the Western push to net-zero.

EVs are not emissions-free, because they need electricity to charge them, and electricity generation creates emissions.

All these costs…

BDN - The questions and controversy behind a proposed Maine wind power line

Does anyone believe the electricity production claims and ratepayer cost claims? What are the real costs when EVERYTHING is factored in, including the costs which derive from the fact that wind is unreliable, intermittent and largely unpredictable? And what of the collision course we're on as the push towards "unreliables" meets up with the equally ill conceived and disastrous push towards EV's?

Electric Vehicles vs. Maine Winters: Will EVs struggle with Maine’s frigid cold?

“There’s a lot of uncertainty about what the vehicle owner’s experience would be if they drive the vehicle in Maine or Michigan,” said one researcher.

BY STEVE ROBINSON AUGUST 14, 2023

The Mills Administration has made it a top priority to get Mainers driving electric vehicles (EVs) as part of its mission to lower carbon emissions and global temperatures.

The latest effort on the EV front is a campaign to enact new limits on internal combustion engines…

Maine Wire - 60th Whale Death Since 2022 Raises Questions Over Offshore Wind Power’s Impact on Endangered Species

BY STEVE ROBINSON AUGUST 14, 2023

On Saturday, New Jersey lifeguards discovered a dead humpback whale washed ashore, the latest in a string of unexplained deaths of various whale species on the East Coast.

Journalist Michael Shellenberger said the whale death was the 60th known death of the large mammals along the East Coast since Dec. 1, 2022.

Although no official conclusions have been reached about why the whales are dying at an…

Longtime Wind Supporter Becky Bartovics Not Happy About Wind Industry Plans for Island Near Her Backyard

I'm not sure whether Sierra Executive Committee member Becky Bartovics' objection to a wind facility on Sears Island would qualify as NIMBYism or not. But if it does, I would ask, "What's so wrong with protecting one's own backyard?" After all, if one doesn't protect their own backyard, who will?

I've never been to Sears Island, but I imagine it is a beautiful place and not a good site.…

A new hurdle for the CMP corridor has backers getting impatient

by Lori Valigra

EXCERPTS

Work has resumed on the $1 billion hydropower project through western Maine, but it still is not clear who will pay for the up to $500 million in additional costs caused by legal and construction delays, causing some supporters to become impatient.

Public Advocate William Harwood expressed concern Friday about the construction delays and projected cost increases for the project that is being spearheaded by Central…

Unity College Prof: Aroostook Renewable Gateway will be bad for people and the planet

Nice to see someone from Unity Environmental University (formerly Unity College) recognize the vile malignancy that is wind power transmission, (and hopefully/literally by extension, wind power) when one considers that the university advertises itself as a route to getting jobs in the wind industry. https://unity.edu/careers/is-energy-good-career/

Is It Time To Fact-Check Corporate Media's 'Climate Hysteria' Over "Hottest Day Ever"?

So how do climate alarmists know what the precise temperatures were hundreds of thousands of years ago? Well, it might be one giant guess, as environmental attorney Steve Milloy recently explained in a Wall Street Journal opinion piece titled "Hottest Days Ever? Don't Believe It":

"One obvious problem with the updated narrative is that there are no satellite data from 125,000 years ago. Calculated estimates of current temperatures can't be fairly compared with guesses of global…

Tonga's volcano sent tons of water into the stratosphere. That could warm the Earth

The violent eruption of Tonga's Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcano injected an unprecedented amount of water directly into the stratosphere — and the vapor will stay there for years, likely affecting the Earth's climate patterns, NASA scientists say.

The massive amount of water vapor is roughly 10% of the normal amount of vapor found in the stratosphere, equaling more than 58,000 Olympic-size swimming pools.

"We've never seen anything like it," said atmospheric scientist Luis…

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.
