1. Greenpeace? The same people who forced the grinding of the Sumatran rain forest

to meet stupid yuppie "renewable portfolio" standards for cars in Germany?

The cretins who engineered the destruction of the Pantanal for the dumb ass worship of Brazilian cars?

The uneducated brats who applaud the strip mining of centuries of midwestern soils to make flex fuel Chevy Tahoes?

Give me a fucking break.

This assholes are always engaging in stupid "percent talk" about 2050 as in their stupid and indifferent EREC/Greenpeace report.

What the retards who wrote this reprehensible report don't say when hawking their ignorance infested fight against the world's largest by far source of climate change gas free primary energy, nuclear energy, is that they have no fucking clue that "50% in 2005" is simply the status quo when measured in units of mass.

The Rainbow Warrior is a hulking mass of diesel waste spewing misrepresentation and frankly, fraud.

These people pretend to give a shit about coal, and then commit moral vandalism by trying to win the Darwin award by standing in front of trains holding experimentally (for a 50 year period) harmless used nuclear fuel.

I have a word for this set: It's spelled with an "L" as in "Loser," with an "I" as in "me, me, me," and "A" as in "assholes," an "R" as in "Ridiculous" and an "S" as in "Slimy".

Put them all together and they spelll L-I-A-R-S.

It's easy to be against everything. But as Roosevelt once said, "It is not the critic who counts." It takes guts however to be for something, particularly something that exists somewhere other than in dumb people's febrid imaginations, like the failed solar and wind industries.

There is ONLY ONE alternative to coal. Greenpeace and the flakes who worship in that abysmal cult are AGAINST that alternative.

2. wind power texas
The United States Department of Energy recently completed a study that found that the high wind energy states of Texas, North Dakota and Kansas could feasibly create enough energy through wind farms to satisfy the entire country's electricity needs.
