Leftist states like those in the Northeast and Left-coast are trying to move to “clean energy” full-time. Problem: when the calendar turns to winter, solar power is of little use. Even worse, when it gets really cold wind power becomes less efficient. The result is that certain New England states are now finding their electrical grids taxed as power needs have increased, causing them to resort to burning less-efficient oil just to keep the power on with a resultant spike in prices. Stupid leftists. Oh, and how about that “global warming”?
