<p>Mr. B. - I still owe you a comment.</p> <p>The label "green" in politics is a permant violation of the "truth in packaging" act. In our country, it means only tapping another source of revenue for the government. We have a number of "green" taxes, fees and charges, which have no other effect than making life extraordinarily expensive in this country. A positive effect on the environment is still missing, sometimes the "green" legislation causes reverse effects.</p> <p>Does that make sense to you? I bet, hardly.</p> <p>Germany used to be a nation with quite a beautiful landscape, green hills, beautiful valleys, spectacular mountains. When you travel throughout Germany now, those nice views are "mutilated" with hundreds of wind mills, most of them idling, as the power they could produce cannot be transported to where it is needed. The ones you see rotating at slow speeds are actually consuming power - they keep them turning to avoid the bearings to freeze. No wonder the leading investor went belly up not so long ago.</p> <p><img src="http://www.general-anzeiger-bonn.de/img/incoming/orig309171/2240009670/949625-1.jpg" alt=" " /></p> <p><img src="http://www.stuttgarter-nachrichten.de/media.media.268a8fc4-c81e-4243-bff4-2eb3b935b1c4.normalized.jpeg" alt=" " /></p> <p>The damage to our wildlife is tremendous, a sacrifice on the altar of greed.</p> <p>No further comment, I don´t want to get banned here.</p> <p> </p>
