Maine has reached just 4 percent of its goal for electric vehicles

by Mehr Sher

May 2, 2023

EXCERPTS

Maine is far from reaching its electric vehicles goals, but the state is continuing to work to make the emissions-friendly vehicles more accessible to Mainers.

Maine currently has about 9,500 electric vehicles, according to state data. It would need to add 30,000 more electric vehicles each year for the next seven years to reach the goal laid out in its climate action plan.

Maine is far from reaching…

The Absurdity of the Attempt to Replace Dense Fuel Sources with Non-Dense Ones and Maintain Modernity

Well, the attempt to  replace the laws of Physics, Science and Thermodynamics etc  has been ongoing now for decades with little to show for it other than "We the People"  financially supporting the Global Elites Green Identity they themselves  created for US!  But it is a fake narrative and one that is failing, the same as the narrative that an XX individual can give birth or can actually " transition" to an XY individual, biologically. Tell me the last time a male gave birth…

The Practical Impossibility of Large-Scale Carbon Capture and Storage

By Steve Goreham -- May 2, 2023

“CCS has been slow to take off due to the cost of capture and the limited salability of carbon dioxide as a product. Thirty-nine CCS facilities capture CO2 around the world today, totaling 45 million tons per year, or about one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) of industrial emissions produced…

Steamed Over Heat Pumps in Vermont

Finnie: Steamed over heat pumps - Vermont Daily Chronicle

To the editor: From the research that I have done on this subject, electric heat pumps are not an affordable, or even a practical solution to what some see as a dire issue. One heat pump will not provide enough heat to keep a house that has multiple heat zones…

ANALYSIS: What You’re Not Being Told About the Electric Vehicle Revolution

By Kevin Stocklin

April 19, 2023

Updated: April 28, 2023

News Analysis

While the Biden administration cannot force you to buy an electric car, it can, by capping tailpipe emissions and other coercive measures, compel producers to severely curtail the manufacturing of internal combustion engine (ICE) cars and drive up the cost of gasoline-powered cars. This will likely result in a fundamental restructuring of America’s automotive industry, which…

Ukraine Using FBI And Big Tech To Censor Dissent In US.

More democracy is breaking out all over Ukraine. President Zelenshy has banned political opposition, eliminated independent media, locked up Orthodox priests, closed churches, and posted a kill list of dissenters/enemies of Ukraine. Now he's hired the FBI to censor US citizens that don't tow the line. All this in the name of democracy. Sounds like the Biden regime's playbook.

Here's the report form The Last Refuge:…

The Electric Market is Rigged Against the Ratepayer

  •  Carbon Allowances are sold in diminishing quantities annually, supposedly to reduce output from emitting generation plants and increase renewable output into the market
  • The clearing price is per allowance which represents a ton of C02 emission.
  • The total proceeds are attached to the price offer from emitting…

" From time to time to educate consumers"

Keep in mind, Maine is required by law to supply renewables in certain percentages, i.e.:

2021 = 45%

2022 = 48%

2023 = 51%

While Maine Laws Mandate 51% Renewables, The Market Offers Only 13.7%

Where does the 51% renewables come from? And how much does it cost ratepayers?

How Push For Electric Cars Endangers National Security

By: Paul Gilbert

April 28, 2023

Ford Motor Company recently announced it’s set to lose more than $6 billion on its latest electric vehicle plants while it gets them running, with the company CEO saying “we cannot continue to import batteries and rare earth from overseas.”

“We can build all the plants, but what’s the good if we’re importing…

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.
