First, let me say that this is not a decision for an unelected body. This is a decision to be made by the citizens of the state of Maine in a state-wide referendum.

How do You Feel About Getting Your EV Stuck in a Snowstorm or Traffic Jam?
Every time I think we’ve milked this cow for as much spoiled milk as it’s worth, something makes the political pressure to move everyone to electric vehicles more ridiculous, especially in places where it gets cold.
Science Once Again Punches Net Zero In Its Stupid Face
As Maine considers following Massachusetts and Vermont down the California EV, NetZero ***! Hole, the science, and a handful of people with some common sense have stepped in to say, slow the hell down. Electrifying trucks comes with some serious downsides.
Exploding Vehicles are Unsafe at any Speed
The New York Fire Department recently reported that so far this year, there have been 108 lithium-ion battery fires in New York City, which have injured 66 people and killed 13. According to FDNY Commissioner Laura Kavanagh, “There is not a small amount of fire, it (the vehicle) literally explodes.” The resulting fire is “very … Read more
EV Truck Buyer Says “– Biggest Scam of Modern Times.”
We’ve reported on the impossibility of Net Zero, how EVs are not green or efficient, the offshoring of emissions, the tremendous cost and lack of return on those investments, and the general fraud that is EVs, but this guy’s story brings that home.
Queensland, Australia, Shows American EV Owners Their Future
Electric Vehicles and COVID cures have a lot in common. If the government endorses them, there is a long list of bad things they are not telling you or denying when anyone dares to tell the truth.
If Biden Bans Gas Powered Generators How Will they Rescue Stranded EVs?
Not one to sit on their hands, the Dems – when in control – reach for everything and anything they can grasp, and with climate policy a priority, they’ve attempted to regulate everything they can’t ban outright, and now they are coming for your gas-powered generators.
Rowan Atkinson: Loves EVs But Admits They’re Not That Green
We’ve said a thing or two about Electric Vehicles not being the green dream the Climate Cult promised. It is a problem they can’t escape, even if they overcome their impracticality in wide-open America, which seems unlikely. But they have their advocates, including actor Rowan Atkinson, but even he’s got concerns.
So Kids, What Did We Learn From This Week’s House Session (05/04/23)?
We learned that Senate and House Democrats are fixated on supplying menstrual products in every public bathroom at public expense—this time, they want it provided in state and county correctional facilities at taxpayer expense with SB209. A similar bill, HB421, has already passed in the House, which is now awaiting its fate in the Senate.
Another Electric Vehicle Fail – Even Minor Collision Damage Can Equal “Junked” Vehicle
EVs are a miserable experiment. Not green, not affordable, not efficient, and an uncontrollable fire hazard, they can cost almost 30% more to insure, and even minor damage could mean repairs exceed the vehicle’s value, so it gets scrapped.
Wyoming’s Idea of Net-Zero: Phase Out All New EV Auto Sales by 2035
The Left’s Net-Zero mission translates to a net-zero lifestyle. A plan that adds millions of electric mouths to feed but contains no viable way to meet increased demand. Some legislators in Wyoming have found it lacking and are pushing back.
Here’s an Idea for the IRS – Stop Giving Rich People Tax Credits to Buy EV’s
Electric Vehicles are expensive and not green, but an even bigger insult is the taxpayer-backed incentives to get one. EV buyers are high-income earners, which makes them high-income emitters looking to buy a bit of virtue signaling.
Another Electric Vehicle Fail: NYC EV Trucks Run Out of Juice Plowing the Streets
New York City uses its garbage trucks to plow snow. The Big Crapple is also hot to electrify the entire fleet, and why not? Who should be more climate #woke than the city that never sleeps? But someone is having nightmares after discovering the two are incompatible—electric trucks and plowing snow.
German Research Team: Diesel Vehicles More Friendly to the Environment Than Electric
Angela and Company put Germany on Energy transitioning hormones, but there’s a problem. Not much wind and not enough sun. And there’s no easy way to turn back. The nation’s last three Nuclear plants are decommissioning, which leaves Deutschland in dire straits.
Consumer Reports: EV’s are Some of the Most Unreliable Vehicles Sold In America
Electric vehicles are to modern America what hair regrowth tonics were in the 18th century. Piss with ink. EVs are a lie wrapped in shadows and penumbras of wishes and dreams without grounding in reality. They are worse for the environment, a terrible transportation choice, and not even Consumer Reports can’t hide that fact.
“Electric Vehicles Are Exploding From Water Damage”
In a delicious irony, the greenies that thought they were outsmarting and healing mother nature got laughed at last as Hurricane Ian tragically tore through swaths of Florida and crippled electric vehicles.
Vermont Electric Vehicle Mandates “Interview” Never Asks the Only Question That Matters …
Vermont has locked in on the California Cobb up-the-backside Electric Vehicle/emissions reduction plan. By 2035 you won’t be able to buy or register a new gas-powered vehicle in the state. All new vehicles will be electric which is a problem for a host of reasons.
How About This for a Plan: Net Zero Elected Democrats
The Left-coast has a radical notion. They can pretend they’ve achieved net zero emissions by offshoring emissions to foreign and third-world countries with less environmental regulation. A dirtier world, just not in their backyard.
Zero Emissions: Pretend Locally, Emit Globally
The American Left’s zero emissions climate goals are not much different than shipping all your plastic garbage to Asia. We do it and pretend it’s recycling, then try to ban straws or bags here when they throw them in the ocean. It’s offshoring, and with Electric vehicles, we are just offshoring emissions, but it’s worse.
Massachusetts and Vermont Poised to Adopt California’s EV Only Mandate and That’s Bad for New Hampshire
To borrow from Forrest Gump, stupid is as stupid does, but that’s not all there is to say about California’s Vehicle emissions standards or why Vermont and Massachusetts (along with 15 other states) are poised to adopt them and an Electric Vehicle mandate.
