Heliogenic Climate Change: Ecotheist nannies take away your flatscreen TV
How much more of this crap are you going to take?:

"Energy-guzzling flatscreen plasma televisions will soon be banned as part of the battle against climate change, ministers have told The Independent on Sunday." "Giant plasma TVs face ban in battle to green Britain"
Wind Watch: Wind power targets face high hurdles; State subsidy sought for offshore turbines
Gov. Jon S. Corzine wants New Jersey to become the offshore wind power capital of the U.S., but an array of financial, environmental and other hurdles lies in his path.

Corzine wants several hundred wind turbines — built by companies and costing billions of dollars — to be generating clean, renewable electricity miles off the Jersey Shore by 2012, and hundreds more turbines by 2020.

The ultimate question for such a massive undertaking remains up in the air: Are the winds offshore strong enough to justify such a large investment?
