Toxic wind, rare earth minerals, carcinogens, radioactive waste, extortion, weapons trafficking, murder and executions

To the friendly readers at Citizens' Task Force on Wind Power-Maine:

As an anti-wind campaigner since 2004, I was initially solely concerned about damaged aesthetics associated with offshore proposed Cape Wind, now struggling for survival :)  For the past decade, I have been researching wind energy as a private citizen, and I'm encouraged that finally the truth about this ENRON business model is surfacing.  I extend credit and thanks to all who have looked behind the curtain to see that wind developers' promises are rarely, if ever, kept.  Most  look forward to the day when the public, fed an endless stream of wind rhetoric, will be able to examine the full life cycle of wind energy as this will create a better understanding that wind energy is a dirty business, and not just due to the dirty politics involved.  

Question:  What does Molybdenum, a rare earth mineral used to make wind turbines, have to do with toxic waste, carcinogens and radioactive waste, extortion, weapons trafficking, murder and executions?

Rare Earth Mineral Molybdenum is: “The metal is used in oil pipelines, new thin-film solar panels, in the steel used for wind turbines, as well as in traditional coal/fossil fuel power stations. In the case of oil pipelines, it takes 2.6 million pounds of moly for every 1,000 miles of pipe.”

Question:  So, just how dirty is so-called "clean energy", wind energy, that incorporates the rare earth mineral Molybdenum?  Let's ask (wind loving) Greenpeace toxics expert-

“Jamie Choi, an expert on toxics for Greenpeace China, says villagers living near the lake face horrendous health risks from the carcinogenic and radioactive waste.”

‘There’s not one step of the rare earth mining process that is not disastrous for the environment. Ores are being extracted by pumping acid into the ground, and then they are processed using more acid and chemicals..”

Liu Han is former chairman of Sichuan Hanlong Group that holds controlling stake in Moly Mines, and the fully permitted U.S. rare-earth mineral mines, Mt. Hope Project and the Liberty Project in Nevada.    

General Moly:   "We own two world-class projects: an 80% interest in the fully permitted Mt. Hope Project and 100% of the Liberty Project, both in Nevada, U.S.A."

HONG KONG — A Chinese billionaire who was building a mining empire in Australia was one of five people executed Monday after a court last year sentenced them to die for running a criminal gang that engaged in murder and extortion.

Liu Han, 49, his brother Wei, and three associates were executed on Monday, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported, citing the Xianning Intermediate People’s Court in the central Chinese province of Hubei.

The men had been sentenced in May for running a criminal syndicate that killed at least eight people, ran extortion schemes, trafficked weapons, and operated gambling dens.

The Chinese government on Monday executed a former mining tycoon with links to the eldest son of disgraced security chief Zhou Yongkang, media reports said.

The High People’s Court in the province of Hubei ordered the execution of Liu Han, former chairman of the Sichuan Hanlong Group, who was found guilty of 13 charges including murder and illegal firearms sales. He was sentenced to death last May for murder and running a “mafia-style” gang along with 36 others.

Liu Han was executed along with his younger brother, Liu Wei, and three other associates, Tang Xianbing, Zhang Donghua, and Tian Xianwei, the South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported.

The case against Liu Han is reportedly one of the most prominent charges brought against a private businessman. Liu Han, who was in 2012 listed as China’s 148th richest person by Forbes, reportedly ran a criminal gang, responsible for the deaths of nine people. Police seized hand grenades, submachine guns, pistols and other firearms in a raid in 2013, the Guardian reported.

Thank you, all at Citizens' Task Force, for offering this forum to those who wish to independently investigate and report their findings regarding TOXIC WIND ENERGY.  As many readers here understand, we won't be reading these facts anytime soon in local news publications that BIG WIND appears to control.  And, here, I won't be edited, deleted, or blacklisted for speaking the truth about TOXIC WIND ENERGY.
