Dear Virginia: Beware of a Windpower Racket in Your State — MasterResource
Because of the false and misleading claims that have been spread widely by the wind industry and other wind energy advocates, it is quite understandable that the public, media, and government officials have been misled. However, it is now time – especially for political leaders – to:

· Learn the facts about wind energy,

· Give far greater attention to the interests of taxpayers and electric customers.

· Stop the unwarranted wealth transfers and misdirection of capital investments resulting from the massive federal and state tax breaks and subsidies for wind energy.

· Resist the lobbyists who are advocating the continuation and expansion of these measures.
'New' IPCC More Political Than Ever! Incoming Head of UN IPCC Working Group 1 Prof. Chris Field Urges Political Action: 'The urgent need to act cannot be overstated' (cfield@ciw.edu) | Climate Depot
Field makes wild claims and stands by 'Hockey Stick': 'Climate change caused by humans is already affecting our lives and livelihoods — with extreme storms, unusual floods and droughts, intense heat waves, rising seas and many changes in biological systems' -- 'Global climate warming, as evident these last few decades, is unprecedented for the past 1000 years — and this change is due to human activities'
Watch Now: Rare ABC News TV Climate Debate: Climate Depot Vs. Center For Am. Progress: Morano: 'The climate con is ending' | Climate Depot
Morano to ABC News: '2 universities commissioned Climategate studies and exonerated themselves -- that is not a shocker. For [Dan Weiss] to use it as proof of exoneration is laughable' -- Climate fears are 'about social engineering, lifestyle controls, it has never been about the science'
...

Morano: [NASA's] James Hansen, endorsed a book calling for deindustrialization of the United States – [a book calling] for bombing cities. We have a man at NASA (Hansen) who is a wannabe Unabomber, a potential terrorist. (Note: To be precise, the book Hansen endorsed – “Matter of Scale” -- calls for “razing cities” and “blowing up dams”. See: Flashback Jan. 2010: Time for Meds? NASA scientist James Hansen endorses book which calls for 'ridding the world of Industrial Civilization' – Hansen declares author 'has it right...the system is the problem' -- Book proposes 'razing cities to the ground, blowing up dams and switching off the greenhouse gas emissions machine')
