** Schumer-Manchin: A terror unleashed
------------------------------------------------------------
** Schumer-Manchin, if adopted, will unleash the largest industrialization of U.S. open lands not seen since the damming of our western rivers. (Special thanks to Basin & Range Watch ([link removed]) for the above image).
------------------------------------------------------------
** See Windaction's analysis of the bill here [link removed]
------------------------------------------------------------
**
Three key takeaways
1) The bill erases the 2016 phase-out of the wind PTC and ITC and effectively makes wind and solar tax credits permanent.
2) Onshore wind will balloon to 280,000+ megawatts and consume millions in NEW acres by 2032. Solar panels will pave over our most fertile farmland (think food supply) while offshore wind industrializes ocean habitat and could cause extinction of the North Atlantic Right Whale.
3) Habitats will be destroyed, viewsheds industrialized, wildlife killed/displaced. Industry will weaponized the language of Schumer-Manchin to force approval of its projects. Politics, not science, will drive the permitting process.
------------------------------------------------------------
** This is not alarmist! It's real!
------------------------------------------------------------
** We shouldn't destroy the planet to save it.
