Interesting article..... 

 

Seeing Gold in Spinning Turbines: Why Texas Is Winning U.S. Renewable Race

 

"Texas and other majority Republican states are leading the U.S. in both wind and solar power, despite polls showing Republican voters rank tackling climate change as a far lower priority than Democrats do."

Maybe, just maybe it has something to do with WEATHER.  you know. those turbines and solar farms probably are more efficient in say texas than NYS.

 

Maybe those states are actually having all the funds to green energy, actually going to the equipment.  vs investments in carbon credits, ESG, and groups to study (jobs) future builds and technologies.

 

or a mixture of all the above and other factors.

 

The biggest beef I hear about NY move to electric is they are not improving the source or backbone to keep up with the demand an electric grid/transportation would need.

 

 

 

 

Also, Anyone else notice the voices screaming about Climate change, green energy also supports weapons to Ukraine.

 

Wonder how those shipments to ukraine, those weapons impact the climate?

Apologies for the late response!

 

I think a lot of the problems are dealing with permitting, regulations, taxes and paying off NYS officials.  

 

Some quotes from Kevin O'Leary since he has been in the news recently....

"I don't put companies here in New York anymore, or in Massachusetts, or in New Jersey, or in California. Those states are uninvestable. The policy here is insane, the taxes are too high."  “I had a project in upstate New York behind the grid in Niagara Falls for electricity — a global data center we were building. Eventually it got so bad with the politicians in the local region and the state policy, we moved it to Norway and all the jobs,” O'Leary said. “That's New York."

 

On a personal note, Canisteo Wind started in 2003 (highlight from the web site below).  I'm not a fan of the project and it's just another example of NY pooping on the Southern Tier (who wants to live among 100+ turbines, someone who has never been around them).  Having said that, it's unbelievable that the project is 20 years old without a single turbine erected.

 

About Canisteo Wind

Invenergy began development of the Canisteo Wind Farm in 2003 and has monitored wind speeds in the area since this date. It is now developing the project with the goal to begin construction in 2019.

Davos: John Kerry Says Only Way to Stop Global Warming is ‘Money, Money, Money, Money…’

 

GettyImages-1246295584-2-640x480.jpg

 

 

The only way of preventing global warming is “money, money, money”, former failed presidential contender John Kerry said at the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos on Tuesday.

 

US Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry said that the world is not acting with enough urgency to “save the world” and prevent what he calls a climate crisis from occurring. The 79-year-old Democrat opened his remarks by questioning how “allegedly wise adult human” such as CEOs and Senators could, as he put it, “ignore our science and want to ignore mathematics and want to ignore physics and somehow cannot bring themselves to do what we need to do.”

Like the rest of the world knows something the west doesn't. Look at where the Nuke plants are being scheduled. it's all Asia, Russia, India.

While North America and the EU keep decommissioning them.

It's important to note that this map measures generated energy as opposed to consumed energy. California, for example, prides itself on data such as this. Guess who is the largest "consumer" of the energy generated in the Rocky Mountains?

But keep screwing the American public.

 

 

I'm sure all of that pollution is going to stay in their little corner of the planet's climate.  Yeah.....right!

Remember that before the Olympics, the air in Beijing was so polluted that the blue sky couldn't be seen. They did cleat up for the games, but it is probably dirtier than before.

yeah. its the first time I read the major news talk about cloud seeding on a massive scale to impact the climate.

 

by releasing aluminum aerosol into the atmosphere.
