MORE RENEWABLE POWER PLANTS LEADS TO AN INCREASE IN CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2)EMISSIONS
PA Pundits International ^ | 07 April 2011 | TonyfromOz

This analysis of data collected over 12 months proves conclusively that with this mad rush to construction and use or renewable power, emissions of CO2 are in fact increasing, which is the opposite of what we are told will happen. Total electrical power consumption increased by 4.7%, and yet CO2 emissions increased by 7%, in both the coal fired sector, and the natural gas fired sector as well. With the huge ramping up in construction of wind plants, renewable power only increased from 1.89% to 2.32%. Emissions rose by 201 million tons to 3.27 Billion tons.

We just need bigger non-functioning windmills.

This could be big. Form a network of C02 monitors in each state then start tracking emissions and energy consumption. It could undo the entire game.
