The Production Tax Credit for wind energy will expire at the end of 2012.
The Tax credit is designed to level the playing field between important renewable energy sources, and the overwhelming government subsidies that have flowed to obsolete and poisonous forms power for more than a century.
The PTC is getting a lot of support from both sides of the aisle, despite the best efforts of the Tea Party troglodytes to undercut the technologies that can save the planet. It’s up to us to let our reps know about the importance of wind in maintaining our competitiveness, creating good jobs and strong communities, and preserving a liveable planet for our children.
