Recently in New Hampshire, residents defeated the Northern Pass project, which threatens to come back for another try.

In Maine, residents are going through a similar situation.

Some comments from Mainers regarding proposed Canadian hydroelectricity lines that would go through Maine to Massachusetts:

“We are not here to act as a power cord for Mass. WE do not need to sacrifice anything to power New England. Let Mass generate their own energy.” – Chris Scerbo

“Most of the power lines are in place already! Wind power causes way more destruction by blowing holes on tops of our beautiful mountains! Hydro power is steady, reliable and affordable!” – Jack Wadworth

“It’s a power line, it doesn’t ruin the forest or wildlife. On the other hand, the house where you live does!” – David Barker

“I live on Cape Cod, drive a Prius and have solar panels. They are so efficient that they supply my house with almost all the power needed for the year. The technology is already here. It is not necessary for Massachusetts to import power from Canada.” – Wendy Williams

PPPs or Public Private Partnerships are the new ‘blended financing’ fads.
But are they good for the public?

“PPPs also undermine democracy and national sovereignty as such contracts tend not to be transparent and subject to unaccountable international adjudication due to investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) commitments rather than national or international courts”

Agenda 2030 seeks to control every aspect of one’s life. To that end, education musts be infused (and indeed is) with the Agenda 2030 propaganda that is present in every child’s school curricula.

The Link Between Declining National Education Quality and UN Agenda 2030

In NH we have seen Marxist legislation being promoted by Republicans: all-day kindergarten and curriculum mandates where teachers are forbidden to teach, to name a few.

The Pearson curriculum, with its Common Core textbooks, that have been widely adopted in the United States, is focused on global citizenship, indoctrination into Islam and collectivism, and any type of literature opposite to the classics. The new Common Core math is dumbing down achievement and students’ ability to compete in a STEM setting.

Alex Newman described the U.N. Agenda 2030 with its 17 sustainable development goals as a recipe for “global socialism and corporatism/fascism” foisted upon the world by the United Nations.

In Grundy County Illinois, wise county managers have decided to eliminate their regional planning commission.

MORRIS – The Grundy County Regional Planning Commission is no more. The Grundy County Board voted at its regular meeting Tuesday to terminate the commission and move its responsibilities to the Zoning Board of Appeals.

Board Chairman Chris Balkema, R-District 2, said he hoped people would learn that the process in Grundy County is getting more efficient.

“This is a great savings to the county in terms of time and expediency of the process,” he said.

Now if only NH would see the wisdom in this, and eradicate these errant, unaccountable boards. For now, the only way to escape your RPC is to demand your town unsubscribe from their ‘services’.

Regional planning commission eliminated

Newswise — Aurora, IL – The Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy is leading the emerging trend in education of developing the next generation to solve global challenges and living one of its founding principles to “significantly influence life on our planet.”

In 2015, countries adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals. In 2017, IMSA adopted these 17 Sustainable Development Goals and started to incorporate them into content and pedagogy for all subjects.

Still think the UN has no influence over American education? Think again.

IMSA Incorporates United Nations Sustainable Development Goals into Curricula

The internationally agreed Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are starting to become a reference point for a wide range of public and private actors. In recent weeks, for example,
New York City declared it will be the first major city to report directly to the United Nations on its progress toward the relevant economic, social, and environment targets for 2030.

The idea is simple: massive redistribution of wealth is necessary to level the playing field across the world. This will be done through global governance.

Do you agree? If not, why aren’t you attending every single planning board meeting in your town, and challenging your town’s master plan?

Who is talking about the UN Sustainable Development Goals?

Considering this is going on all over the USA, and not just in NH, you would think more people would get off their couches and fight it?

They say “you can’t fight city hall,” and it is an even bigger battle when the issue “city hall” is pushing is really just a part of a world-government scheme. Yet, in Bayou La Batre, Alabama (shown), John Birch Society (parent organization of The New American) member Jim Marshall and others recently demonstrated that patriotic citizens not only can fight city hall, they can win — if they have the educational weapons in their “arsenal,” provided by The John Birch Society.

The scheme defeated in Bayou La Batre, on the Alabama Gulf coast, was part of Agenda 21, which is a globalist attempt to impose UN environmental regulations aimed at controlling local cities and towns though the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI). It was created in 1991, and already includes hundreds of member cities and towns in the United States and around the world.

Never forget what the US State Department signed on to in 1992. It was an agreement that said “Current lifestyles and consumption patterns of the affluent middle-class — involving high meat intake, use of fossil fuels, appliances, home and work air conditioning, and suburban housing are not sustainable.”

Shouldn’t New Hampshire take a lesson from this?

“How bad are the problems, delays, and rising cost estimates for the state’s proposed high-speed rail system? “Initially a rat-hole, now a sinkhole, soon it will be an abyss in which more and more tax dollars are forever lost. I speak of the never-ending scam called high-speed rail,” California state Sen. Andy Vidak, R-Hanford, said in a statement.”

In Arkansas, planners have forced low income housing upon the residents in keeping with HUD regulations and demands that a percentage of all new housing in any town in the US comply with their guidelines for size and cost.

“ROGERS — The Planning Commission approved a request Tuesday to create affordable housing in the southeast area of the city despite objections from neighbors.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development defines affordable housing as housing costing occupants no more than 30 percent of their income for housing costs, which includes utilities.”
