I Have Waited More Than A Year and a Half For This!!!

Since October of 2015, when the "Community Organizer In Chief" signed on to the Paris Accord, I have waited for this day. A day when a real businessman gets into office and begins to look at Economic Reality. This is the new era where we will not subject ourselves to a New World Order and will Make America Great Again. 

I've been telling Mike White that this was coming. I know how he feels, as that was the way I felt when the community organizer signed on to this loony contract…

Does This Mean All Our Maine Windfarms Are Non-Functional?

"Transmission bottlenecks that prevent Maine’s wind generation from reaching load centers in Massachusetts and Connecticut could be relieved by allowing large and small generators to pool their interconnection requests." 

To me this sounds like the planning of our great "Wind" experiment was seriously flawed and rushed to production to scoff up the huge tax and construction subsidies. We have all known that the current…

Can the PPH Be More Hypocritical? I don't think so!

Refinery plan called affront to Teddy Roosevelt’s legacy

The ultimate Hypocrisy of the PPH is overwhelming. They import an article all the way from North Dakota to protest an “Affront To The Legacy Of Teddy Roosevelt.” Where were they when the now defunct and bankrupt First Wind, a spawn of King Angus and his cronies, decided to step all over a 2003 Maine Department of Conservation acquisition of lands and established a…

Divergence of Species Responses to Climate Change

A very interesting and scientifically driven study of how climate change has increased the size of plant life, specifically forests, and increased the size of the plants themselves due to climate change. They specifically note both an increase in the temperature and an increase in the water available is the primary reason this is happening. While this is a real positive aspect of climate change, it is…

Top 10 Reasons We Work On Conservative Clean Energy

For the last 30 years the Energy Policy in the US has been backwards. We have spent too much time trying to develop expensive, unreliable "renewables" like wind and solar and have neglected the innovations in nuclear and hydro. It is far cheaper to build hydro but the government has gotten in the way and we have totally avoided nuclear and the new nuclear technologies. China is eating our lunch while we waste our time on fraudulent claims about wind and solar and storage…

New England in Precarious Position After EPA Shuts Down Coal

Obama's Energy legacy is failing New England, and even ISO NE is telling us that the shutdown of coal, nuclear and oil plants in New England is going to leave a massive hole in the grid. They are even saying wind and solar can NOT fill the gap as they are not sufficient, don't have grid support and are not reliable enough to work. Within a year or so, Pilgrim will be shut down and all the coal plants will be gone. The green movement is fighting the gas pipeline at all levels, being headed up…

A fool's errand: Al Gore's $15 trillion carbon tax

The anti-humanity proposals in Gore's latest initiative have as one of their chief goals the elimination of fossil fuels, full stop. Gore does allow for greater use of natural gas into the 2030s, but he eliminates coal right away. He also allows for oil use to grow into the mid-2020s, but "decarbonize" means just that; his plan inevitably ends with a phase-out of fossil-fuel use. Fortunately for us all—and make no mistake about it, the American people understand this—the…

Wind Subsidies Should End

"Without subsidies, wind power is a loser". From Warren Buffett.  

"I lost my ass in wind." T. Boone Pickens.

Both these massively rich investors have been involved in wind farms and energy development and those are exact quotes from both of them. 

This article makes a good point that Wind has made…

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/
