An apple that hasn't fallen far
No wonder Congressman Patrick Kennedy says so little about Cape Wind. When he does, Kennedy doesn't say much but reveals a great deal.
Even the staunchest opponent of the Nantucket Sound wind farm (yes, that would be you, Cliff Carroll) must have winced as Kennedy stumbled his way through a Nov. 11 appearance on "10 News Conference," a Sunday talk show on WJAR out of Providence.
With oil nudging an ominous $100 a barrel, it was just a matter of time before host Jim Taricani asked Kennedy and fellow Rhode Island congressman Jim Langevin about high energy costs.
Langevin, who sounds like what you'd expect of a member of Congress - lucid and intelligent - said "I think that gets to the issue of, why aren't we doing more to encourage and support developing renewable alternative sources of energy?"
Kennedy, sensing which way the wind was blowing, rudely interrupted Langevin to demonstrate his keen mastery of the incoherent. What follows are Kennedy's remarks, transcribed by me from the segment archived at the channel's website, with my observations in italics. ( To see the segment for yourself, follow this link to the Channel 10 website.; the segment is the second from the top, "(Special Edition from Washington) Countdown to Decision 2008" and about 10 minutes from the end of an hour-long program).
Kennedy - "First of all, we need to have energy efficiency and we need to support energy efficiency, we need to support conservation and we need to support renewable fuels (... and we need to say we support all of these things, and say that often, and support saying that ...). So we need, we need a multi-pronged approach, we need an energy, we need an overall energy policy and, and, and frankly, that's (sic) means we need to take a multi-pronged approach (... did I mention that all-important multi-pronged approach ...?) and, and frankly, you know, part of it comes from having, ah, fuels, mixed fuels, ah, part of it means having, ah, ah, ah, kinds of vehicles that don't use, ah, part of it means having, incentivizing solar, wind, ah ..."
WJAR political reporter Bill Rappleye asked, "how about a wind farm on Nantucket Shoals?," presumably a reference to Cape Wind, though he got the location wrong.
Kennedy - "Ah, well, I mean, I think that, ah, certainly, I'm against the Cape Wind project if you're trying to get to that."
Rappleye - "Why?"
Kennedy - "Why? Because I don't want to see a big, huge (spreading arms wide) Nantucket wind turbines in the middle of Horseshoe Shoal." (emphasis added, and throughout).
Taracani - "Isn't that the hypocrisy of the whole thing? You say you're pushing alternative energy, there it is, but all of a sudden, the rich folk out there on the Cape, 'oh, we don't want to see something in the way of our sunset.' "
Kennedy - "Listen, that's going to destroy, the number one industry in Rhode Island is hospitality industry. You want to see, you don't think our industry isn't tied to the, to southeastern New England? You don't think the people that don't go to Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket and Newport and that area, do not, ah, go to that area because of the summer activities? You don't think that having an enormous wind farm isn't going to drive down ... "
Rappleye - "No, I don't think that, I mean ..."
Kennedy - "I beg to differ ..."
Rappleye - "... In Norway and Finland where they have these, these wind farms ..."
Kennedy - " ... You're buying that cockamamie propaganda that they're selling, please. You want to see, you go, have you ever sailed across Horseshoe Shoal? (... well, have ya, huh? Huh?! ...) It's a small little shoal between Menemsha and Cotuit. Have you ever sailed by that? You're talking ..."
Taracani - "Most of us don't have sailboats."
Kennedy (pause, followed by a feeble ...) - "OK. Well, have you ever taken the ferry across there? Have you ever gone across ( .. by swimming, windsurfing or escorted by the Coast Guard after running aground ...?), I'm sorry, but you know, for anybody who wants to preserve the aesthetic value of what I think is part of our nature's wonderful areas of the world and doesn't want to just exploit it for private gain for a developer, then I think we need to preserve that."
Back to Langevin and an end to the Kennedyspeak that Congressman Kennedy has learned so well from his father, an unrivaled master of the form - "I support wind power and I think that's probably where Patrick and I would respectfully disagree. But wind power is one component of an alternative energy policy - solar power, wind power, again, ethanol development," which Langevin mentioned earlier in the show. Government incentives for alternatives could come by reducing tax breaks and subsidies to fossil fuels, he suggested.
Looking back at Kennedy's remarks, you'll see in bold print the principal basis for his opposition to Cape Wind. As a friend of mine pointed out, Kennedy's remarks were almost refreshing in that they encapsulated the opposition's main bone of contention with none of the window-dressing - they don't like Cape Wind because they don't want to see it.
In fairness to Kennedy, he also criticized Cape Wind as a project where a developer would profit at the expense of "our nature's wonderful areas of the world." But coming from a grandchild of Joseph P. Kennedy, whose predatory appreciation for the profit motive remains legendary, the criticism is laughable. The Kennedys would never have gotten near Capitol Hill or the White House were it not for their patriarch's keen instinct for the jugular on pre-Depression Wall Street and illicit bootlegging during the Depression. Asked why he appointed Kennedy as head of the Securities and Exchange Commission, a New Deal agency that oversaw financial markets, FDR is famously said to have responded, "It takes a thief to catch one."
"Money bought Joseph P. Kennedy enormous personal freedom," wrote Sy Hersh in "The Dark Side of Camelot," his devastating critique of the Kennedys, "and bought his son the presidency."
As for Patrick Kennedy's claim that offshore wind farms would destroy the region's hospitality industry, he must have set a record not just for double but triple negatives - " ... you don't think our industry isn't tied to the, to southeastern New England? You don't think that the people who don't go to Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket and Newport and that area, do not go to that area because of the summer activities? You don't think that having an enormous wind farm isn't going to drive down ... " Seven negatives in three sentences - oh the humanity!
Come to think of it, wouldn't driving tourists away from the Cape and islands presumably help a nearby and comparable vacation destination - such as Rhode Island, home to Kennedy's constituents?
By the way, Congressman, your description of Horseshoe Shoal as situated between "Menemsha and Cotuit" is a bit of a stretch. You're confusing the shoal with Vineyard Sound - as anyone spending a great deal of time yachting off Cape Cod should know.

Greg Watson's words
By Greg Watson, keynote speaker at the Clean Power Now Annual Meeting, 10-25-07
Grassroots non-profit organizations are playing an increasingly important role as catalysts for social change. This is not necessarily a new phenomenon, but its recognition is rather recent.
Greg Watson, Senior Advisor for Clean Energy Technology at the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy & Environmental AffairsIn fact I first met Barbara Hill, current executive director of Clean Power Now while I was working as education director at the New Alchemy Institute. New Alchemy was a non-profit research and education center located on 22-acres not far from here in Hatchville. It was a leader in the development of what was then called "Appropriate Technology". The mission of New Alchemy was to develop environmentally sound approaches to meeting society’s basic needs: food, energy, shelter and clean water.
Founded in the 1970’s in the midst of the Vietnam War, the Civil Rights Movement, and the beginning of the environmental movement, New Alchemy founders John Todd, Nancy Jack Todd and Bill McLarney focused on coming up with solutions to the problems at a time when most environmental organizations seemed content with articulating the problems. That’s what attracted them to me.
As far back as the 1970’s New Alchemy researchers demonstrated that we know how to decrease our dependence on fossil fuels. One-tenth of an acre of their raised-bed organic gardens were able to support the annual vegetable needs of thirteen people. Passive solar greenhouses were able to operate throughout the winter months solely on solar power. In the early 80’s and old cow barn on the site was renovated and converted into a public auditorium. Super insulation and other energy conservation techniques/technologies eliminated the need for a central heating system.
Pioneed by a small non-profit organization right here on Cape Cod
Massachusetts imports virtually all of the energy it consumes. We depend on coal, natural gas and oil to power our power plants. Because of this we cannot close our eyes to the fact that our electricity comes at the expense of someone else’s mountaintop.This was powerful stuff, pioneered by a small non-profit organization right here on Cape Cod. New Alchemy designers, researchers and engineers employed "whole systems thinking" when tackling problems. Bucky Fuller is credited as the "Father of Whole Systems Thinking". This approach to problem solving is comprehensive and anticipatory. It is designed to avoid solutions that produce "unintended consequences" somewhere down the road.
Finding the "Trimtab"
One of Bucky’s great insights was that an understanding of whole systems leads to the discovery of one or more "points of leverage" that offer the best opportunities for changing the course of a system (no matter how large and/or powerful). He called this the "trimtab" principle:
Large ocean-going ships traveling a good clip require a great deal of energy to turn the rudder and change its course. This is due to their momentum and the density of the water that must be overcome. However if a small flap (trimtab) is placed on the trailing edge of the rudder right above the water level) it can be turned with a relatively small amount of energy. When it turns, it creates a partial vacuum, which in turn pulls the rudder and ultimately changes the course of the ship.
This is how grassroots non-profit organizations like New Alchemy and Clean Power Now, can bring about major social change with relatively modest resources.
That kind of thinking and approach to problem solving is needed more today than ever. The lack of commitment on the part of the Bush Administration to addressing climate change calls for a coordinated grass-roots effort. That is precisely what CPN represents.
Massachusetts imports virtually all of the energy it consumes. We depend on coal, natural gas and oil to power our power plants. Because of this we cannot close our eyes to the fact that our electricity comes at the expense of someone else’s mountaintop, landscape (or in the case of the Columbian coal that we import – entire villages).
The 900,000 megawatts of wind energy off our coast
300,000 MW between Cape Cod and Cape Hatteras
This does not have to be the case. The U.S. Department of Energy has identified 900,000 megawatts of potential wind energy off the U.S. coast. That is roughly equivalent to the total current installed capacity. About 100,000 MW of that is off the coast of New England. This gives Massachusetts a real competitive advantage with regard to a prodigious, indigenous, inexhaustible clean energy resource. More than 300,000 MW exists between Cape Cod and Cape Hatteras. If we begin developing even a portion of this we could see how some measure of energy independence could actually be within reach – especially if this is done in parallel with a commitment to develop plug-in hybrid vehicles. Plug-in hybrids powered by offshore wind farms (the fleet of vehicles doubling as a "storage system") offers a real vision of how the U.S. could wean itself from foreign oil.
Finally, we must avoid "red-herring" arguments pitting wind energy versus wave or tidal or "deep-water" vs. "near-shore" offshore wind sites. We should be thinking in terms of "additional" sites and technologies not "alternatives".
For in fact, we need them all.
One person's response to global warming
Joan Muller, educational coordinator of the Waquoit Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve and owner of a solar-heated home, will give a multi-media presentation on "One Cape Codder's Response to the Challenge of Global Warming" on Sunday Nov. 4 from 7 to 8 p.m. at the Wellfleet Public Library, 55 West Main St., (yes, in Wellfleet).
The presentation is scheduled to roughly coincide with the National Day of Climate Action on Nov. 3.
Those planning to attend are invited to take part in a potluck supper from 5:30 to 7 p.m. before the program, and are asked to bring a dish of food, a mug and their own utensils.
For more information, Muller can be reached at the research reserve at 508-457-0495.
Cape Cod Commission voting today on Cape Wind
Update, 6:43 p.m.: Commission members voted 12-0 late this afternoon against Cape Wind's application.
Word around the campfire is the Cape Cod Commission will vote this afternoon to reject Cape Wind's application to bring its electrical cables ashore.
The full commission is scheduled to meet at 3 p.m. at Barnstable District Court to vote on Cape Wind's application. A commission subcommittee recommended last month that the full commission reject the application.
A thumbs-down by the commission will likely trigger an appeal by Cape Wind to the state Energy Facilities Siting Board, which in May 2005 voted in favor of Cape Wind's application to connect to the regional grid.
In anticipation of today's action by the commission, Cape Wind has released its response to the subcommittee's concerns and requests for additional information.
Barbara Hill, executive director of the pro-wind farm non-profit Clean Power Now, released a statement criticizing the commission for its expected vote today.
"It is a foregone conclusion that the Cape Cod Commission will refuse to grant Cape Wind's permit for an underwater cable (Thursday)," Hill said. "It is clear that the Commission is poised to claim it is somehow lacking enough information. What is also clear is that the Commission has made a mockery of the important role it is intended to play in protecting all the people of Cape Cod."
"More than 8,000 pages of federal and state permitting related reports have been released. Yet the Cape Cod Commission's subcommittee recommendation claims it does not have enough data to make an informed decision," Hill said.
"In taking this regrettable step, the Commission is providing the people of the Cape all the evidence they need to know that the Commission has been captured by a few special interests with enough money to buy just about anything they want, including the government agency intended to protect us all."

Matt Patrick to speak at meeting of Cape & Islands Renewable Energy Collaborative
State Rep. Matt Patrick, D-Falmouth, (at right) is featured speaker at the next meeting of the Cape & Islands Renewable Energy Collaborative (CIREC) on Wednesday Oct. 17 at 7 p.m. at the Upper Cape Regional Technical High School in Bourne.
Patrick, who supports the Cape Wind project, is expected to provide "an insider's perspective on the status of proposed energy policies aimed at increasing reliance on renewable resources in Massachusetts," according to Chris Powicki, principal of Water Energy & Ecology
Patrick's remarks will be followed by a panel discussion on green power options and "novel products" that may be available in the future, according to Powicki. The meeting is expected to last for two hours and is open to the public free of charge; light refreshments will be served.
"Consumers overwhelmingly support renewable energy yet few actually enroll in green power purchasing programs, which aren't expensive but can be confusing," Powicki said. "This panel discussion will illuminate distinctions among current and proposed green power products, explore the opposition to NStar's approach and encourage local consumers to go green."
The discussion will focus on green power options available from the Cape Light Compact and the Massachusetts Energy Consumers Alliance and others proposed by NStar based on long-term contracts with wind projects in Maine and upstate New York. Taking part in the panel discussion will be Joe Soares of the Compact and Janna Cohen-Rosenthal of the Massachusetts Energy Consumers Alliance; NStar declined an invitation, Powicki said. He may also join in the discussion to describe NStar's renewable energy products, or this would be done by Meghan Amsler or Richard Lawrence of Cape & Islands Self-Reliance.
For more information about the event, contact Powicki at 508-362-9599 or chrisp@weeinfo.com.
Delahunt changes venue for forum on climate change - and closes it to the public
Is it my imagination or has Congressman Bill Delahunt become unnerved by the frightening specter of anyone uttering the dreaded words "Cape Wind" in his presence?
Last month, after speaking at a gathering of renewable energy entrepreneurs in Fall River, Delahunt made a beeline for the door before the panel discussion that followed and any questions could be asked of him.
Earlier this week, word went out from the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard that Delahunt would take part in a panel discussion on "Germany and the States: Taking the Lead on Global Climate Change," along with a German environmental official, state Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs Ian Bowles and two Harvard professors.
Alas, the school sent out an email blast yesterday notifying recipients that the forum had been abruptly cancelled. And as was the case when Delahunt couldn't stick around last month at the event in Fall River, no explanation was given for the cancellation at Harvard. The forum at Harvard would have been open to the public.
Could it be the Harvard forum was cancelled because Delahunt has scheduled another event in its place earlier that day, a luncheon featuring the same German environmental minister, along with "elected officials and members of the business community," to be held at a country club on Delahunt's home turf in Quincy -and closed to the public.
Wendy Williams gets the word out on the event in Quincy at her blog website, Cape Wind - The Book, which includes a copy of the letter from Delahunt to state legislators informing them of the luncheon. At the end of Delahunt's letter, you'll find this timeless non sequitor, the finest I've seen in many a moon - "Space is limited, so unfortunately this invitation is not transferable."
Apparently math is not among Delahunt's strong suits, nor does our cowardly lion of a congressman have the stomach for awkward questions from constituents that risk exposing him for the hypocrite he is.

Delahunt to take part in panel discussion at Harvard on climate change
Update: the forum was abruptly cancelled, with no reason given, according to an email notice sent out yesterday by the Kennedy School of Government.
Congressman Bill Delahunt, in photo at right, a member of the House Renewable Fuels and Energy Efficiency Caucus, will be one of five panelists discussing "Germany and the States: Taking the Lead on Global Climate Change" on Monday Oct. 15 at 6 p.m. at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard.
Also taking part will be Ian Bowles, the state's Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs and a former senior director of Global Environmental Affairs for the White House National Security Council (1999-2001); Kelly Sims Gallagher, adjunct lecturer in public policy and director of Energy Technology Innovation Policy at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at the Kennedy School; Matthias Machnig, state secretary of the German Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety; and Michael McElroy, a Harvard professor of environmental studies who will act as moderator.
The forum is open to the public at no charge. The Kennedy School is situated at 79 JFK St., a quarter-mile walk from the Harvard Square subway station.

Those allegedly insurmountable problems with radar
Yet another nail in the coffin of claims by Cape Wind's opponents that the Nantucket Sound wind farm will wreak havoc to radar and navigational systems for planes and vessels crossing the Sound:
"In the next two years, Air Force and Army leaders plan to install as many as seven wind turbines to power some of the base's electricity hungry groundwater treatment plants," reported Cape Cod Times staff writer Amanda Lehmert yesterday.
Lehmert quoted state Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Ian Bowles as saying, "It seems to be very fitting that the base is starting to move more in this direction ... It is really exciting that the leadership of the Massachusetts Military Reservation is starting to put resources to this task."
The Air Force is already under contract, Lehmert reported, "to build a 398-foot, 1,500-kilowatt turbine " by 2009 at a cost of $4.6 million.
"When it's complete, Air Force officials expect the single turbine will reduce the amount of electricity they need to buy from fuel-burning power plants by 30 percent," Lehmert wrote (emphasis added). Alas, it will also -gasp! - "be visible from Route 28."
As for the six turbines planned to provide electricity for the base's ongoing groundwater cleanup, Hap Gonser, the Army's groundwater study program manager, said "his goal is to have the turbines generate 100 percent of the electricity used by the program - although the size of the turbines, and the environmental benefit, will depend on what is most economically feasible," Lehmert wrote.
"We see it as a cleanup system optimization," Gonser told Lehmert. "You're using less fossil fuels and creating less air pollution" - while also cleaning the Upper Cape's groundwater.
In other words, not just win-win -- win-win-win.
All of which begs the question - if arrays of wind turbines allegedly pose a mortal and insurmountable threat to radar and navigational systems on planes and boats, why are the Air Force and Army building wind turbines on a military base? Perhaps because Cape Wind's opponents have consistently exaggerated the threat.
Yes, I'm aware that the 102nd Fighter Interceptor Wing's F-15 fighter planes are leaving for their new home at Barnes Air National Guard Base in Westfield, a transfer that began last month and continues until March. But the airfield at Otis will remain open, as will the Coast Guard air station on the military reservation, where hundreds of rescue helicopter flights are logged every year for mariners in distress. And as far as I'm aware, Otis also remains an airfield that the space shuttle can use for an emergency landing.
A question I would ask of the military - why limit yourself to seven turbines? The 20,000-acre plus MMR, as I know from my six years in the Air National Guard at Otis, is a vast, relatively flat - and windy locale. Building more wind turbines there means less dependency on oil from abroad, one of many measures we can take to protect our country.
Fighter planes scrambling out of Otis were on the front line of our defenses against militant Islam on Sept. 11, 2001. The F-15s are leaving, but the presence of wind turbines at the military reservation - and many more of them - will ensure that Otis remains on the front line.

Richardson to Address Climate Conference
October 12-13, Manchester, NH, Radisson Hotel
While attending the Clean Air - Cool Planet's Global Warming and Energy Solutions conference in Manchester later this week, Governor Bill Richardson (D-NM) will talk to New Hampshire voters about his plans to combat global warming.
Governor Richardson recently announced his support for Cape Wind, the renewable wind energy project slated for Nantucket Sound.
Clean Air-Cool Planet is the region's leading organization dedicated to finding and promoting solutions to global warming. Clean Air-Cool Planet's energy & climate solutions conference is the third since 2003. Clean Air - Cool Planet is a non-profit organization.
The Conference will focus attention on climate impacts, challenges and solutions - and to include or engage so many involved citizens and leaders - so close to the First-in-the-Nation Primary.
Governor of New Mexico and Democratic Presidential candidate Bill Richardson will address the General Session at 4PM on Friday.
"We must "Act Boldly and Act Now" in order to make America a Clean Energy Nation like I made New Mexico a Clean Energy State. Consider this a call to action, for Congress, the energy industry, and the public. I am calling for a New American Revolution -- an energy and climate revolution."
Attracting a national audience, the conference features keynote speakers Ralph Izzo, Bill McKibben, Berrien Moore, Jerome Ringo, Larry Schweiger and Christine Todd Whitman. Featured participants include Ian Bowles (Secretary for Energy and Environment - Massachusetts), Gary Hirshberg, Mark Huddleston, Robert Semple, and Congressman Tom Udall, and Susan Tierney.
Long Island wind project may not be dead in water
.... according to attorney Carolyn Elefant's excellent Offshore Renewable Energy Law blog -
Back in August, Elefant reports, "Pace Global Energy released this Report concluding that LIPA's proposed offshore wind farm would cost $800 million, more than double the cost originally predicted. As a result of the report, LIPA chairman decided to recommend pulling the plug on the project, as reported here in Renewable Energy Access.
"However, in mid-September, Bluewater Wind, which had initially submitted a bid to build and manage LIPA's offshore wind project approached LIPA, with a proposal for a larger offshore wind farm, as reported here. According to the report, Bluewater Wind believes that it can lower the cost of power from an offshore wind farm by constructing a larger project which will provide the benefits of economy of scale.
Bluewater Wind, Elefant points out, was "the winner in a competitive bidding process in Delaware that pitted offshore wind against a more conventional natural gas fired project. Delaware regulators chose the offshore wind option though it was marginally more expensive because of a desire to promote diverse energy supply and to mitigate global warming. "
And as Elefant noted here, "at least one recent university study shows that Delaware residents don't mind paying extra for offshore wind."
