"Green energy" is a scandal in itself. THe only thing "green" about it is the green money that flows into the pockets of the grifters who promote it.Green energy is much more expensive and much less reliable than conventional power. Both wind and solar are land intensive and have led to vast deforestation, which only in an Orwellian sense could be passed off as "green". That deforestation not only includes the sites where the wind and solar "farms" are built, but also vast swaths of the Amazon, known as the "lungs of the planet" which are being clear cut for balsa wood for wind turbine blades.

Here in North Carolina, the scoundrels behind pushing our own green new deal include Phil Berger and Jim Perry in the state senate and Tim Moore in the state house.
