Wind Leaseholders Lapping up BP's Pablum

Today Jefferson Leaning Left's post was written by a reader

The reader submitted the following comment to a post I wrote warning that British Petroleum is out to stick it to the community of Cape Vincent, NY.

Don't let the taxpayers get stuck with the junk. Ask the Town of Cape Vincent to pass a law requiring the landowners to be legally and financially responsible for the ultimate dismantling of any industrial wind turbines built on their property. In that law, the leaseholders should be required to provide a bond that will pay for the dismantling or be returned to them if the company pays it for them. Link here to read Jll's post.

JLL’s post reminded me of a decommissioning idea sent to me by a reader…

As you know decommissioning of a wind farm is probably the most perplexing issue related to wind farm development. Here is a link that I believe has real possibilities; especially if it could we could get lease holder cooperation:

In the immortal words of "Weird Al" Yankovic. ... EAT IT!





Note what you are about to see in the video below is real.

Mr. Eat it All is able to swallow anything - including metal. He has gobbled up planes, bikes, thousands of glasses and bolts, but rarely a banana
