Okay people, here is just the tip of the 'not so melting' ice berg that will slowly engulf our country if we don't get on the sick - George Bush, what in the hell are you thinking???:
I believe we must have regulation on emissions from all power plants as we only have one environment for our selves and for the next generation. But when the regulations already in place have been approved over the years and other federal agencies have inspected these plants to death, why now is it so important to stop coal fired power plants even though there are no alternatives that will support our growing economy. The answer is obvious, the fraud of global warming - garrrrrr
Demand is growing at a rate that exceeds supply. Everyone is aware of this situation but most in our government are terrified of the media and the Eco-terrorists that apparently control the energy supplies in this country.
The question now is 'Who will have to endure the brown outs and freeze just a little in the winter?' Will they turn down the thermostats in the US capital and the White House? Will those sitting in the seats of power in Washington suffer like the rest of us? - da - no way guys!
This is just a small article from the Wisconsin Energy Cooperative Magazine bringing to light things that are going on behind the scenes that the 'main stream media' doesn't want you to know about.
If we don't step forward now and demand a common sense energy policy, be ready to put on the coat and light the candle's before sitting down to dinner.
Have the coats ready and keep the faith, the battle is joined!
Feds Halt Coal Plant Loans
The US Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service (RUS) had formally confirmed what became apparent several weeks ago, it has stopped providing federal loans to finance construction of coal-fired power plants.
The March RUS announcement came in response to a directive from the Bush administration's office of Management and Budget to hold off on new loans until future construction costs and the impact of potential carbon dioxide regulations are better understood.
A letter from the head of RUS to a Montana cooperative, dated in Mid-February, indicates the new policy was firmly established by that time.
Advising that RUS was backing away from financing a power plant proposed by five cooperatives and the Great Falls, Montana municipal utility, RUS administration James Andrew wrote, "the agency is precluded from financing based load generation plants in the Fiscal Year 2008, and I suspect that will be the situation in Fiscal Year 2009".
