U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Official Was Interested in Becoming CEO of American Wind Energy Association

Investigative Report of Steve Black - U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service

The Inspector General of the Department of Interior released this report involving an investigation of Steven Black, a senior official who is now retired from the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Mr. Black had apparent close ties with the renewable energy industry and was accused of pressuring subordinates to ignore environmental concerns in favor of supporting the construction of wind energy and other renewable projects. The summary of the investigation is provided below. The full report can be accessed by clicking the link(s) on this page.

They money from these guys is like heroin. Look at Audubon , Sierra Club and other once prestigious groups. Like addicts that will rob their relatives and close friends, these groups have turned on  members and their founding causes. Now with Audubon supporting wind turbines they are one of the worst enemies of all bird species.

 

The wind money is like heroin. These guys know exactly how to pull you in with it. Look at Audubon ,Sierra Club and other once prestigious groups. These groups have turned on members and their founding causes.  Much like the addict turning on the most precious in their lives, thy rob family and close friends looking to score their next hit.  The truth is now that Audubon is supporting wind turbines they are one of the worst enemies of all bird species.

Speaking of Google, I see they are THE number one contributor to the Appalachian Trail Conservancy.

One can only wonder whether such big donations come with strings.

I know from my wildlife research on wind energy that the deeper one looks the uglier it gets. The wind industry has relied on a massive fraud from the beginning. This industry capitalized on the feel good environmental movement of the 1970's by selling an apparently safe and limitless form of energy. It was all lies and what people didn't realize is that the same dark characters behind this fraudulent industry were also many of the ones that created  America's turmoil in the 1960's.   

 

It was our corrupt leaders, financial institutions, and corporations looking for profits.  Corporations like Google wanting to increase their wealth. It is not for our good that they are investing in wind energy fraud, it is for them. Just like the banks that transfer funds that feed terrorist groups. It is profitable so that makes it right.

 

Now the lies are getting bigger and those involved are becoming bolder. As seen by the recent study from Health Canada on heath impacts, the rigging is getting worse.  We are now seeing a blatant you can not stop us attitude emerging. Instead of a how do we fix this approach that decent citizens expect, we are seeing what I have seen from the beginning..........How do we keep rigging all this and who can we get to sell out?                                                                                                 Steve Black having worked for the Interior Department fits into all this nicely. I would love to have a a face off discussion with this guy without a group of lawyers and gag orders laws protecting him.

It seems to be a gold rush mentality. Maybe the windsprawl purveyors see themselves as the new generation of industrialists like Westinghouse or JP Morgan. Sad.

Love to see posts exposing the crooks and the idiots with power behind our renewable energy developments. I know from my research that the deeper one looks the uglier it gets. Keep it up because educating the public can make a difference.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    

 

Speaking about education, at a board of Supervisors hearing in 2008 I spoke against a highly destructive wind project being proposed on a billionaire's property.  As I was speaking, right off the bat I noticed a big problem, idiots were running the asylum. I felt like I was talking to a bunch of monkeys and I could clearly see from their facial expressions that they did not have a clue what I was talking about. This panel of five could not even think of one question to ask.

 

But they had power and this worthless project was approved.

 

From this November day in 2008 I have referred to what I encountered as the "planet of the apes syndrome". This is a disorder where idiots are handed power over situations that they can not possibly comprehend. I have run across this disease on numerous occasions and happen to know it has reached epidemic proportions in Washington DC.  It is even killing many conservation groups.

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/
