Why would it compared to the trillions in payoffs and lobbying on behalf of big oil and coal.
Plus wind is actually a positive energy source
BTW dailymail is not a very reliable source of info but not surprising you would link to them
BTW also there are no alarmists here Just people who want educate those who don't comprehend, climate change including all the skeptics here who can't grasp the science.
Gary And that money has been greasing local politicians and congress since the 1940s
Ian 63 years of buying politicians. supporting denier think tanks, tax credits and who knows what else. I guess I should have said worldwide I forgot
Boy you are a rude little twit, aren't you?
Why would that surprise anyone? Despite being told they are wrong, Deniers constantly claim that the alternative energy industry is a bunch of tree-hugging environmentalists. The truth is that they are business people. The wind energy industry especially, is run by a bunch of really smart 30-something business jocks in $1000 suits.
C is basically right. Cheney allowed the petroleum industry to set America's energy policy. It is impossible to estimate the amount of money that moves between the government and the energy industry.
"Does it concern alarmists that Big Wind is buying off policy makers in Britain?"
Have you stopped beating your wife?
Is that Green as in greenhorn or Green with envy or green as an traffic lights , only when not being yellow or red ?
C, "Plus wind is actually a positive energy source."
A positive flop. It is commercially too expensive. It requires too much maintenance because of the varying conditions. It has PROVEN in effective in Germany and in the US. It is definitely not an answer.
"BTW dailymail is not a very reliable source" It is more reliable than wind power.
The greenies don't care how much money is thrown at nonfossil fueled power supplies. It is just another method of wealth redistribution.
Quote by Ottmar Edenhoffer, high level UN-IPCC official: "We redistribute de facto the world's wealth by climate policy...Basically it's a big mistake to discuss climate policy separately from the major themes of globalization...One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. This has almost nothing to do with environmental policy anymore."
Considering that many of these alarmists prefer political systems where their solutions can be implemented by fiat, I think they like the idea that the politicians can be bought by their side.
I thought that the politicians were Big Wind.
That scandal goes further than Britain the IPCC is being paid off by greenies and
environmental kooks.
I'm sure if it was oil money buying off bureaucrats you'd be having conniptions.
