And what do they think will replace the turbines to treat their water? Coal or oil burning power plants! While that area usually is characterized as a bunch of Limousine Libs, they obviously are, in reality, rich, greedy Republicans who hate the environment.
The tree hugger “green” people know how to make you sick at great price!!!
not to mention all the dead seagulls that they have to clean up.
And that's probably after all sorts of subsidies as well as the town's taxpayer money.
Those things are horrible. The jerks over at North Haven in Penobscot Bay put one of those up, right in one of the most beautiful and historic parts of the islands, and you can see it from all over the bay.
I've said from the start that this will be just like all those dams. First they built them everywhere for clean energy, and then they started tearing them down--for the fishes. The windmills will go for the sake of the birds, if not the nearby people.
But, first they have to put them all up, at enormous expense.
Surely the source of Solyndra-like Taxpayer-Green-energy-borrowed/printed money that paid for the POS, will now chip in to remove it.... right?
“And that pulse, it gets into your tubular organs”
What the heck are “tubular organs”?
Windmill maker gets Federal kickbacks. Windmills installed at price. Windmills UNinstalled at a price. Local politicians get greased while taxpayers get hosed. I’d say those windmills did EXACTLY what they were intended to do.
Liberals.
Science is not their friend.
Math is not their friend.
Economics is not their friend.
Actually, I cannot think of any non-felon committing human who is their friend.
common sense could have prevented this waste to the taxpayers. as an avid environmentalist concerned with true stewardship of our resources and who works in the green industry it is my honest opinion that this technology, as is solar, is not to the point we can truly use it as a viable long term resources. However, geothermal, hydro are and we should be pushing resources in that direction. We need a conservative candidate who will push hard on green issues - true stewardship thru such as avenues. Where are they? They have to exist? If you know any please post. We are commanded by God to be stewards of the planet He gifted us. This is clearly a conservative cause that his been corrupted by the marxists.
Wind turbines going the way of the Chey Volt, snicker snicker.
Such bullshit.
How can an "estimate" range from $5 to 15 million?
That is not an estimate, that is a "town official" without a clue and the town did not have a contractor come in, investigate and then give an estimate.
Would you hire a contractor that gave you an estimate that had a range up to 300% of error?
No fair Mike, the only reason I clicked on this story was to see a picture of Molly Line.
The govt needs to teach these folks that they can cut their food bill by taking advantage of the shredded poultry downstream....
