1ºWhile it is important to find sources of fresh water, one needs to be aware that this is a prime target for scammers. There have been various Go Fund Me and other investment scams for supposed gadgets that collect moisture from the air and ground. A number of them have turned out to be BS. For a water harvester to work, there have to be certain conditions such as morning fog or low clouds on a mountain. You can't precipitate water from dry air in enough quantity to be fiscally viable. This is a very risky technology to invest in.
2ºBreaking News: Democrats nationwide are crying because Trump wasn't indicted by the partisan investigation by Joe Biden's friends and colluders DA Vance and AG Leticia James for the sole purpose to make him not run.
In other news, a Special Prosecutor in either the DOJ or US Supreme Court appointed may investigate the partisan investigation to see if this was collusion between the Democratic Party, DOJ, DA Vance and New York AG Leticia James for the sole purpose to stop Biden from having Trump run against him again.
Yes the courts can appoint special prosecutors as we saw a judge do that on Manafort.
Emails, documents, witness statements will be subpoenaed..
3ºThe Green New Deal & The cost to the American People.
https://www.westernjourna...rst-year-alone/
According to the Heritage Energy Model, as a result of the taxes and carbon-based regulations, by 2040 one can expect:
A peak employment shortfall of over 1.4 million jobs.
A total income loss of more than $40,000 for a family of four.
An aggregate gross domestic product (GDP) loss of over $3.9 trillion.
Increases in household electricity expenditures averaging approximately 12 to 14 percent.
Thousands of Wind turbines and Solar Panels across our nation. Do you have any idea how much land will be needed to implement this plan? Turbines will be in your backyard, along with the dozen of dead birds it causes. Yes the government can do that, can you say eminent domain? Not to mention the cost, it will financially bankrupt our country, turbines solar panels are outrageously expensive, oh and China, where they are made, we see the rewards, NOT US. The Fundamental Transformation of our Suburbs.
A 2019 study co-authored by former Congressional Budget Office director Douglas Holtz-Eakin predicted such a policy could cost somewhere in the ballpark of $93 trillion.
WIND TURBINE;
Most of the commercial-scale turbines installed today are 2 MW in size and cost roughly $3-$4 million installed .A 2-megawatt wind turbine would require 1.5 acres of land. Think about this; 4000 turbines Power Palm Springs. Palm Springs is less then 100 miles,, 94.68 miles to be exact. Now take that 4000 turbines per 100 miles and multiply it by 3.797 MILLION miles the size of the USA , Don't think they'll be in your back yard? Think again. Now multiply the cost of each turbine needed across the nation. Not to mention the amount of turbines will change the landscape, What was a beautiful view will now be replaced with turbines...
The most comprehensive and statistically sound estimates show that bird deaths from turbine collisions are between 140,000 and 500,000 birds per year
The turbine has to spin continuously for 7 plus years just to replace the energy it took to manufacture the turbine...
Bet you didn't know, most of the parts for a wind turbine are built in Germany, it requires 60 gallons of oil to lubricant the turbine. ( where do you think that oil leaks when a seal busts - onto the ground or into the water).
The blades are made of a toxic fiberglass combination and are buried in landfills in Wyoming.
It has to run continually for 50 years just to pay for the cost to manufacture and install the turbine....which is approximately $2 million dollars per turbine. However, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), the lifespan of wind turbines is only about 20 to 25 years.
SOLAR PANELS;
Think about this; A 1500 sq ft house generally needs about 16 panels to completely cover electrical power needs With installation, an average residential 5kW size system costs between $3 and $5 per watt, according to the CSE, which results in the $15,000 to $25,000 range. .About 7.86 billion solar panels would be needed to power the U.S. on solar energy. Now put that in with perspective of how many solar fields will be needed threw out our country.
Disadvantages of Solar Energy
The initial cost of purchasing a solar system is fairly high.
Weather Dependent. Although solar energy can still be collected during cloudy and rainy days, the efficiency of the solar system drops.
Solar Energy Storage Is Expensive.
Uses a Lot of Space.
Associated with Pollution.
