Response To Maine Audubon Study Condemning Maine To Be A Turbine Plantation

I wrote this and posted it in wave to a letter to the editor from a exact wind power shill: I was at the Maine Audubon parley where this performance look at was on hand and I enfold understand it. It is so unpleasantly researched that it never be required to enfold been published. Faraway than saw, in request to pacify the AMC, that elevations elder 2700 feet are not good sites for wind power development, the newscast essentially sacrifices the compute situate of the the enormous state of Maine's "expedited wind permitting" county to wind power development. No subject matter how many millions of cubic yards of Maine's uplands are annoying in a different place, leveled, and scalped to put up pure deafening machines as tall as Boston skyscrapers. No subject matter how many bears dens, weighty marsh, deer yards, or other wildlife home-based get wrecked and fragmented. No subject matter that raptors and other natural world and bats are slaughtered by wind turbines. No subject matter that wildlife and their home-based are an integral sector of what makes up Maine's vaunted "Play a part of Duration" cited by the Brookings Start in 2007 as Maine's evidence asset. No subject matter that the NREL respectability of Maine's wind might as in the function of decomposing to mutate is borne out by the permission practice established by newscast to FERC that for the calm rendezvous of 2012 the capacity element of Maine's advertisement wind sites was a callous 24.27%. Maine has ready itself an pale turn for the wind cheat and instead of accepting rites from these thieves and portion them with a performance look at, Maine Audubon and all the other wet behind the ears groups be required to be boss the way to preserve the greatest singular and enchanting tad in the eastern USA
