"Higher energy costs have not attracted major investments to Maine".
"Governor LePage is doing what he can to reverse that. He wants to foster conditions that allow people to stay, if they want. He is trying to make Maine business-friendlier — but he is running up against a social-democratic culture".…

M.D. Harmon: Climate-change skeptics face intellectual McCarthyism
Something darkly ominous just happened in the ranks of climate scientists, and it follows a trend in which many people have not been permitted to speak – or even been fired – for holding views on such issues as marriage, militant Islam and foreign policy that opposed the positions of…

M.D. Harmon: Media won’t tell you, so here are reasons to doubt global warming
Polls show Americans continually rank “climate change” near the bottom of lists of important issues. Apparently, “Global warming is harmful because shut up” is the only argument many activists have left.
... But hard-core “greens” seem to believe we can fuel an industrial…

If you do not support climate catastrophes . . . you are placed into a deniers box and accused to support the interest of the oil industry or alternatively that you are a man in a senior age and therefore unable to understand the concerns of the younger generations.
The frenetic publicity campaigns of recent months—the hyped reports of imminent climate catastrophe and the serial exaggerations of the prognosis of the West…

Is this like the "aging transmission lines" scare that caused the ratepayer to be hit for $1.4 billion to buy the Maine wind industry essentially free shipping (CMP transmission upgrade) to southern N.E. for its product, already benefiting from all kinds of subsidies and preferential treatment?
Global warming was used to create the unconstitutional Maine wind law of 2008…

Harold Hamm, the self-made oil billionaire was vigorously prosecuted by the Obama administration with criminal charges for killing a single sparrow-sized bird. Yet the same administration wants to let the wind industry kill our national bird with impunity for 30 years.

All this new concern ignores a main cause.

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.
