We get many requests for studies, reports and articles on a specific topic (e.g. wind energy infrasound) that were in previous Newsletters. Although Master Resource has generously posted some prior issues of the Newsletter, there was no way to quickly search over multiple prior Newsletter issues — until now!

Although it took a substantial amount of time, we’ve now put each of our prior eleven years (!) of Newsletters into eleven separate (searchable) documents.

Additionally, we’ve combined all eleven years into one (very large but still searchable) document — which has 13,500± studies, reports and articles!

See here for this new, hopefully helpful index.

Since this archive goes all the way back to 2009, there will undoubtedly be broken links. Just let us know and we’ll try to fix what we can.

(The revision date of each document is in the heading, after Note 4.)

Again, best wishes to all our faithful 10,000+ Newsletter readers. Have a safe, enjoyable and profitable New Year. Thank you for your continued support.

Note 1: We recommend reading the Newsletter on your computer, not your phone, as some documents (e.g. PDFs) are much easier to read on a large computer screen… We’ve tried to use common fonts, etc. to minimize display issues.

Note 2: Originally this was a monthly Newsletter. However, as pertinent material proliferated, it has been issued more frequently. As a guideline once we collect a hundred worthwhile articles, a new Newsletter will be issued on the following Monday. Recently this has resulted in a once every three weeks frequency — and occasionally once every two weeks.

Note 3: Our intention is to put some balance into what most people see from the mainstream media about energy, environmental and education issues… As always, please pass the Newsletter on to open-minded citizens, and link to it on your social media sites. If there are others who you think would benefit from being on our Energy & Environmental email list, please let me know. If at any time you'd like to be taken off this list, simply send me an email saying that.

Note 4: This Newsletter is intended to supplement the material on our website, www.WiseEnergy.org . For wind warriors, the most important page there is the Winning page.

Note 5: I am not an attorney, so no material appearing in any of the Newsletters (or the WiseEnergy.org website) should be construed as giving legal advice. My recommendation has always been: consult a competent licensed attorney when you are involved with legal issues.
