2-“DWP officials said they remain serious about their bid to eliminate coal … But they also said the DWP has not been able to guarantee that it could reach that target while maintaining a reliable source of power.” And that, is where the real problem lies, my friends.

5-“Putin, who has overseen all major energy deals Russia made in recent years, is keen for the country to maintain its role as a major oil and gas producer. He has repeatedly expressed his skepticism about alternative energy.” How did he put it?

Time to start asking more questions:
Question:
Do we want our energy (and environmental) policies to be determined by real science, or to come from lobbyists?
Question:
What empirical evidence exits that the over 100,000 huge wind turbines in the world have been responsible for reducing consumption of fossil fuels and abating any CO2 emissions?
Question:
What coal plants have closed because of wind?
Question:
Are we asking enough questions from national, state, county political and policy decision makers that support wind?
Question:
Do you want Mineral County Comprehensive guidelines to be determine at a community level or created from self serving Big Industrial Wind Developers like US Wind Force, LLC that threaten with legal suit because their comments are not considered during the final hour.
