Desperate and increasingly defenceless, the carpetbaggers profiting from the great wind and solar scam are struggling to quell a popular revolt against rocketing power bills and blackouts. Spaniards and Portuguese, among them.
And as the utterly obscene hidden costs of net-zero insanity bubble to the surface, the outrage is palpable.
Which brings us to this week’s roundup.
The first piece from Chris Morrison, who details the £1.5 billion bill to be lumped on taxpayers to try and overcome the destructive effect that wind turbines have on Britain’s radar system.
That these things mess with radar is hardly news. See above a GIF capturing South Australia’s weather radar (one of which operates from Buckland Park north of Adelaide). Blue images are meant to signify rain, yellow images heavy rain, which may also represent local thunderstorms.
What’s depicted is the product of two separate aggregations of turbines. On the left, north of Lochiel and south of Snowtown sit 137 turbines at what’s called the Snowtown Wind Farm. To the right between Saddleworth and Robertstown you’ll find 43 of these things (occasionally operating) at Waterloo. The suggestion of a permanent localised rainstorm over wind turbines is, of course, a meteorological fiction.
With Britain’s wind turbines generating a little power, now and again, but a clear and present danger to shipping and aviation, taxpayers will be lumped with an enormous bill to attempt to fix the problem created by these things.

As David Turver explains, the rising, and already crippling, costs of attempting to generate occasional electricity offshore in a corrosive marine environment has caught up with, and killed off, yet another offshore pipe dream.

In a ‘don’t say we didn’t warn you’ moment, Russ Schussler goes back to his predictions of 2015 when he outlined precisely why increasing reliance on chaotically intermittent wind and solar leads to an inevitable collapse in reliability and an inevitable surge in power prices.

The team from Jo Nova take a look at efforts by the Climate Industrial Complex to brainwash and indoctrinate school kids with their grand ‘wind and solar will save us’ narrative. What they reveal reminds STT of Comrade Lenin’s edict in the same vein when he said: “Give us the child for 8 years and it will be a Bolshevik forever”.
Why is the renewables industry allowed to sponsor political advertising in schools and call it “education”?
