The Maine Labor Climate Council
When someone uses the word "planet" in a sentence, is it because they watched too much Star Trek or too much Al Gore?
"The petition delivered by a member of the Maine Labor Climate Council was signed by over 100 residents voicing support for wind power."

The Maine Labor Climate Council
Advancing an ambitious, pro-worker agenda to combat climate change and reverse economic inequality
We are a coalition of Maine labor unions representing working Mainers across our state. We seek to develop the labor movement’s vision for how to tackle the twin crises of climate change and inequality in a way that creates good Maine union jobs, reduces carbon emissions and economic inequality, and provides a seat at the table for workers and unions in this process. By educating fellow workers, building alliances, and advocating for policy solutions our work shows that we do not have to choose between a healthy planet and good jobs that sustain our families and communities.

Very short sighted lobbying coalition pandering for the other short sighted climate fear mongering bunch that control the stolen money from the ratepayers and taxpayers of Maine.

Mainstream Fear Of A Trump Second Term
The following are Marxist republic-ending events:
- the invasion at the southern border and the "administration" denying there is a real problem, telling us illegal aliens are great
- spiraling inflation, largely a function of our currency being devalued due to the national debt
- national debt headed to $50 trillion in 6 years (per Congressional Budget Office)
- the unprecedented attack by Marxist-installed courts on the leading candidate for president by the current president, "President Biden", who was not elected but rather illegally installed
- the mainstream media ignoring or denying or lying about anything negative about the criminals in the White House while at the same time broadcasting every lie about President TrumpStart watching at about the35 minute mark if you are pressed for time.

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/
