RUSSIA'S BIGGEST WIND POWER PROJECT

As ice-cold autumn storms were gathering force in the far northern Russian region, a company of Russian and Italian businessmen and state officials exchanged warm handshakes in a party tent erected on desolate lands about 80 km northeast of Murmansk city.

The event took place in a desolate area located northeast of Murmansk City, on the spot that soon will house 57 major wind turbines.

It is the Italian company Enel and its subsidiary Enel Green Power that will build the the Kolskaya Wind Farm. By year 2021, the 201 MW park will be in operation. It will be able to produce up to 750 GWh per year. LINK - more like this (Russia) - link

TOO MUCH GRETA ?

Critics responded strongly to a speech given by far-left climate extremist Greta Thunberg at the United Nations on Monday, saying that the apparent level of emotional distress she appears to be dealing with constitutes "child abuse."

Thunberg, who repeatedly declared "how dare you!" in an arrogant manner, also claimed: "You have stolen my dreams and my childhood."

Critics weighed in on her speech, calling it "child abuse," "disturbing," "exceptionally creepy," "scary," "insanity," "fanaticism," and "propaganda."

Here is some of the reaction her speech garnered online:

Federalist editor David Harsanyi tweeted: "The idea that they can use a kid as a political shield, give her immense coverage, and then no [one] is allowed to talk about the substance of her arguments because she is a kid ... is just silly.

It's the same with the gun-control kid. He says tons of ridiculous things that are then amplified by media. Yet, people get mad when you point it out. Hey, don't use kids for your political causes. I hate when either side does it." LINK
