We are in the middle of writing a series of articles on how our over reliance of "expertise" is creating a dependency and enabling more corruption. As Mark Twain said "An expert is just an ordinary fellow from another town" and MPSC and Cole's actions just demonstrated how wise that pithy statement is.
The notion that we should let government experts decide how we can/can't live our lives is clearly flawed. This is why it is ***SO*** important for the average citizen to get involved, get educated, ask a lot of questions on these issues, vote, and put themselves out there as potential candidates for office. As the administrative state takes more and more control, it behooves all of us to make sure we're doing what we can to stay acutely aware of what authority is being given to government agencies.
Why local ordinances are a necessary solution for wind, solar and batteries. When something like these types of generation that affect a county to a huge extent - locals need to be the ones in the drivers seat of the building and construction of these sites.
If you don't like what they do, then you can vote them out!
GHE theory fails because of two erroneous assumptions: 1. near Earth space is cold & w/o GHE would become 255 K, -18 C, ball of ice & 2. radiating as a 16 C BB the surface produces “extra” GHE energy aka radiative forcing (nee caloric).
Both
Are
Just
Flat
Wrong
!!!
Without the atmosphere, water vapor and its 30% albedo Earth would become much like the Moon, a barren rock, hot^3 400 K on the lit side, cold^3 100 K on the dark.
“TFK_bams09” GHE heat balance graphic & its legion of clones uses bad math and badder physics. 63 W/m^2 appears twice (once from Sun & second from a BB calculation) violating both LoT 1 and GAAP. 396 W/m^2 upwelling is a BB calc for a 16 C surface for denominator of the emissivity ratio, 63/396=0.16, “extra” & not real. 333 W/m^2 “back” radiating from cold to warm violates LoT 1 & 2. Remove 396/333/63 GHE loop from the graphic and the solar balance still works.
Kinetic heat transfer processes of the contiguous atmospheric molecules (60%) render a terrestrial BB (requires 100%) impossible as demonstrated by experiment, the gold standard of classical science.
Since both GHE & CAGW climate “science” are indefensible rubbish alarmists must resort to fear mongering, lies, lawsuits, censorship and violence.
Curious: how do changes to zoning regs affect these policy decisions to increase "replaceables?" [I've read Behind the Green Mask by Rosa Koire outlining the role the UN Agenda 21 plays in zoning for "smart" growth and 15min walkable cities.]
A lot of these decisions are intertwined and funded by the next level up. The feds have passed special tax policy (PTC/ITC) that aid in the decision to build more wind/solar and have also passed bills like the Inflation Reduction Act that lavish billions of newly printed tax dollars onto states, wind/solar developers, and utilities. The states lap those dollars up. They use them as an incentive to pass state legislation that mandates more and more wind/solar (because "we don't want to miss out on those federal funds!!")
In Patrick Wood's book Technocracy Rising, he described how Federal dollars, from bills like the Inflation Reduction Act, do not flow directly to the states. Rather they flow from the federal gov't to NGOs who then tell the states what the rules are to receive the funds.
Good point. A lot of the dollars are flowing to NGOs. I've heard stories from friends and colleagues that work in DC describing how the environmental NGOs were swimming in so much money after the passage of the IRA that they didn't know how to spend it all.

I haven't read "Behind the Green Mask," but there is definitely a push from international bodies like the U.N. toward the energy transition and promote policies like 15-minute cities. They've been pushing a lot of that sort of thing since the early 90s at least. I wrote about the Y2Y, A2A, and rewilding over 20 years ago. https://www.fraserinstitute.org/studies/science-fiction-or-science-fact-grizzly-biology-behind-parks-canada-management-models

But there are also a lot of funds going to the states to cover various green programs. Whitmer just came out and announced another round of federal funding "to boost Michigan's green initiatives." https://www.wkar.org/wkar-news/2024-05-20/whitmer-announces-federal-funding-to-boost-michigans-green-initiatives
With little money laundering shenanigans I'm sure 🙄
You know, with the 2017 Tax Cuts creating opportunity zones and FASB 56 allowing secret accounting records (aka stealing from the Treasury).
