  3. I am afraid that there is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well, because as long as the disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living, but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent before the public. - Booker T. Washington 1911

    Why are MAGAturds so whiny about wind energy?

    In two papers — published today in the journals Environmental Research Letters and Joule — Harvard University researchers find that the transition to wind or solar power in the U.S. would require five to 20 times more land than previously thought, and, if such large-scale wind farms were built, would warm average surface temperatures over the continental U.S. by 0.24 degrees Celsius. https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2018/10/large-scale-wind-power-has-its-down-side/ While about 90% of turbines are easily recyclable, their blades are not. They are made from fiberglass bound together with epoxy resin, a material so strong it is incredibly difficult and expensive to break down. Most blades end their lives in landfill or are incinerated. https://www.cnn.com/2023/05/28/world/wind-turbine-recycling-climate-intl/index.html

  17. And today he is worth over $10 million.
  18. Yes The problem is that these players are not in football shape. It is the fault of the CBA and the NFL. The CBA states that teams can only practice in pads 11 times during the season. There is a limit on how much practice and training you can do as a team. The NFL started playing three preseason games for money purposes which now has teams evaluating new players and sitting there starters. I believe at one time there were six preseason games. These are just a few of the reasons.

  22. Do you believe that fossil fuels are the biggest cause of man-made global warming? The green new deal is increasing the temperatures of the world. It is a brilliant plan to obtain power and money and it is working to perfection, of course it had to bank on the ignorance of the human population. Book it you heard it here first.
