The offshore wind industry is facing the fury of fishermen determined to protect their fisheries, their livelihoods and the environment they live and work in. Along America’s Atlantic coast, fishermen of all shapes and sizes have turned on the offshore wind industry with an industrial scale fury. Right alongside them are those with a passionate … Continue reading Furious Fishermen Stage Revolt Against Offshore Wind Industry

Acoustic Rape: Why Wind Turbine Construction Noise Kills Whales
The relationship between offshore wind turbine construction noise and marine mammal fatalities is now incontrovertible: Wind Industry’s Wanton Whale Slaughter Caused by Constant Deafening Construction Noise The underwater cacophony created during offshore construction is laid out in Michael Shellenberger’s documentary Thrown To The Wind (see the video below) and this post: US Govt Lying About Offshore Wind … Continue reading Acoustic Rape: Why Wind Turbine Construction Noise Kills Whales
Generation IV: New Reactor Design Makes Ever-Reliable Nuclear Safer Than Ever
Generating power reliably around-the-clock, nuclear power has always made sense - ask the French, for starters. When compared against the chaotic intermittency of wind and solar, and their need for massive and endless subsidies, nuclear power generation wins hands down. If anything, the disaster unfolding in places where increasing wind and solar capacity has wrecked … Continue reading Generation IV: New Reactor Design Makes Ever-Reliable Nuclear Safer Than Ever
Wasted & Worthless: Mountains of Wind & Solar Power Dumped For Want of Buyers
In a theatre of the absurd, wind and solar generators get paid (with your taxes) to generate nothing at all (except subsidised profits for their shareholders). Producing no power when consumers really need it, and mountains of power when consumers don’t, is the very definition of chaos. And all that wanton waste comes with a … Continue reading Wasted & Worthless: Mountains of Wind & Solar Power Dumped For Want of Buyers
Net Zero Suicide Watch: Suicidal Energy Policies Deliver Economic Disaster
Britain’s power consumers are paying a heavy price for its maniacal obsession with intermittent wind and solar. Trashing its coal-fired power fleet and failing to keep up its nuclear plants now looks positively suicidal. The cost of generating occasional electricity offshore is positively insane, and getting worse. And that’s just to focus on the economics. … Continue reading Net Zero Suicide Watch: Suicidal Energy Policies Deliver Economic Disaster
Energy Essentials: Why Modern Civilisation Critically Depends On Coal, Oil & Gas
In a world where humans are regarded as cockroaches and wilful ignorance a winning virtue, it’s little wonder that misanthropes in the West hate everything about coal, oil and gas. Except the myriad benefits that they bring. You won’t find the same attitudes being expressed in India, China and Indonesia - where hydrocarbons are dragging … Continue reading Energy Essentials: Why Modern Civilisation Critically Depends On Coal, Oil & Gas
Hacked Off: CyberCrims Attack Rooftop Solar To Bring Down Entire Grid
Widely distributed micro power generation using rooftop solar, only increases the vulnerability of power grids. Cyber criminals (aka hackers) often test that kind of vulnerability, as a kind of sporting challenge. Malicious state actors are set up to do so as a prelude to war. Knockout a power grid and your (now powerless) enemy is … Continue reading Hacked Off: CyberCrims Attack Rooftop Solar To Bring Down Entire Grid
‘Green’ Pyromania: Wind Turbine Fireballs Keep Setting the World On Fire
Another day, another firestorm caused by a self-immolating wind turbine. Once ignited, they rain down tonnes of flaming oil, and spew burning plastics and fibreglass across tinder dry grass and brush land. That ability to start bushfires (to Australians) and wildfires (to Americans), means every single wind turbine grinding away in the countryside stands as … Continue reading ‘Green’ Pyromania: Wind Turbine Fireballs Keep Setting the World On Fire
Idiotic ‘No Nukes’ Policy Leaves Germans Scrambling For Reliable Power
Germany’s fixation on subsidised wind and solar gave rise to the destruction of its once enviable nuclear power generation capacity. The so-called wind and solar transition aka the ‘Energiewende’ has been an unmitigated disaster, with perfectly avoidable and perfectly predictable power rationing and crushing power prices driving German manufacturing industries and businesses to the wall. … Continue reading Idiotic ‘No Nukes’ Policy Leaves Germans Scrambling For Reliable Power
Green Hydrogen Meltdown: Carpetbaggers Crabwalk Away From ‘Clean Fuel’ Projects
Seems like only yesterday when ‘green’ hydrogen gas was the next big thing. And then, all of a sudden, it wasn’t. The story, or should we say fairytale, went something like this. Once upon a time there were millions of solar panels and wind turbines generating electricity in such a sporadic and chaotic fashion, that … Continue reading Green Hydrogen Meltdown: Carpetbaggers Crabwalk Away From ‘Clean Fuel’ Projects
