Nothing invokes rage and fury in rural communities like a wind farm comprising dozens and sometimes hundreds of 300 tonne, 200m high monsters. In Germany, locals expressed their opposition in no uncertain terms - voting 25 to 1 against a giant wind project proposed for their patch of paradise: Renewables ‘Transition’ Hits Roadblock: Germans Vote … Continue reading America’s Rural Communities Go On The Offensive Against Big Wind’s Turbine Onslaught

New Green Deal Turns Sour: Counting Colossal Environmental Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
The true environmental and social cost of intermittent wind and solar is simply staggering. Millions of solar panels are already being dumped in landfill, and millions of nonrecyclable wind turbine blades are joining them; altogether creating a toxic legacy the generation who blindly championed so-called ‘green’ energy. A few posts back we carried a … Continue reading New Green Deal Turns Sour: Counting Colossal Environmental Cost of Wind & Solar Obsession
Carcass Count Mounts: Wind Industry Callously Slaughtering Millions of Birds & Bats
The level of cynicism and hypocrisy among wind power advocates is breathtaking. The wind industry is slaughtering millions of birds and bats every year and yet there’s barely a peep from those who continue to berate us about ‘saving the planet’. Clear-felling swathes of forest and destroying natural habitats across the globe to make way … Continue reading Carcass Count Mounts: Wind Industry Callously Slaughtering Millions of Birds & Bats
Real Power, Real Jobs: Unions Demand Nuclear Power and End to Offshore Wind
Among the myriad of myths propounded by the wind industry sits the promise of millions of groovy 'green' jobs purportedly on offer. In this post STT covered a very detailed study from Wisconsin on the effect of rising power prices (caused by massive subsidies diverted to wind and solar) has on real jobs. Based on actual … Continue reading Real Power, Real Jobs: Unions Demand Nuclear Power and End to Offshore Wind
New Green Deal’s Punishing Price: Ditching Fossil Fuels Would Cost Americans $29 Trillion
Green New Deal Democrats claim that America will soon be powered by nothing but sunshine and breezes and, thereafter, never use fossil fuels, again. Part of the premise involves creating an all-electric society, where every household or business is exclusively powered by electricity. The idea has been around for some time, but it appears renewable … Continue reading New Green Deal’s Punishing Price: Ditching Fossil Fuels Would Cost Americans $29 Trillion
Enough Already: Time To Declare America’s Pacific North-West Wind Turbine Free
American hostility towards these things is world-renowned, now those from the picturesque Pacific North-West have cried ‘enough already’. Blessed with enviable hydropower resources, Washington State is not the first in the Union to take a set against industrial wind power, and it won’t be the last. Keen to avoid the power pricing and supply calamity … Continue reading Enough Already: Time To Declare America’s Pacific North-West Wind Turbine Free
Wind Industry Claims Scorched: Wind Power Costs Are Increasing Not Decreasing
The true cost of wind power is staggering and, despite wild claims to the contrary, is becoming more even expensive, not less so. Dr John Constable and Gordon Hughes have done what the mainstream media have never done and what renewable energy rent seekers would rather they didn’t: they’ve opened the books of account to … Continue reading Wind Industry Claims Scorched: Wind Power Costs Are Increasing Not Decreasing
Impossible Dream: Why Promise Of All Wind & Sun Powered Future Is Complete Nonsense
The dream of an all wind and sun powered future is more like a recurring nightmare: chaotically intermittent, critically dependent upon massive and endless subsidies and environmentally destructive, the idea that millions of giant industrial wind turbines and seas of solar panels will somehow benefit the planet beggars belief. In two detailed and well-crafted videos … Continue reading Impossible Dream: Why Promise Of All Wind & Sun Powered Future Is Complete Nonsense
Lingering Legacy: Millions of Toxic Solar Panels That Can’t Be Recycled Destined for Landfills
Around the globe, millions upon millions of solar panels have reached their use by dates; they can’t be recycled, which means they’re destined for the local dump. Each panel is a veritable toxic cocktail of gallium arsenide, tellurium, silver, crystalline silicon, lead, cadmium and other heavy metals. As the stuff leeches into the water table, … Continue reading Lingering Legacy: Millions of Toxic Solar Panels That Can’t Be Recycled Destined for Landfills
Energy Unplugged: Government Plans to Cut Your Power Whenever Wind & Solar Output Collapses
Visit the Third World and you’ll quickly understand the importance of having power as and when you need it. In the Western World, an obsession with chaotically intermittent wind and solar will save you the trip. Wind and solar ‘powered’ South Australians and Californians know all about Third World power supplies - with routine rationing, … Continue reading Energy Unplugged: Government Plans to Cut Your Power Whenever Wind & Solar Output Collapses
