So-called green groups that help cover up the wind industry’s rampant slaughter of birds and bats are just as guilty as those who directly profit from the carnage. A fair proportion of their practised acquiescence is explained by bags of cash - aka helpful “donations” from outfits such as NextEra to the likes of the … Continue reading Deathly Silence: Green Groups Complicit in Wind Industry’s Endangered Eagle Slaughter

Not Green: Eagles Constant Victims of Wind Industry’s Endless Bird Slaughter
With the world’s wind turbines slicing and dicing thousands of eagles, owls, hawks, and kites every day, wind farms are more slaughterhouses than power generators. Millions of tonnes of beneficial bugs get splattered annually, along with millions of birds and bats, some of them being among the last of their kind. At the apex of the avian … Continue reading Not Green: Eagles Constant Victims of Wind Industry’s Endless Bird Slaughter
Unbridled Bird Slaughter: Wind Turbines Wiping Out Australia’s Iconic Dancing Brolga
A 60m long wind turbine blade tip travelling at 350 kph makes short work of birds and bats - smashing Eagles to smithereens and slicing Brolgas to ribbons is all part of our ‘inevitable’ renewable energy transition. The Australian Brolga (a member of crane family) is a majestic creature known for its intricate, paired dance … Continue reading Unbridled Bird Slaughter: Wind Turbines Wiping Out Australia’s Iconic Dancing Brolga
Endangered Atlantic Right Whales Next Victims of Offshore Wind Power Push
The endangered Atlantic Right Whale appears to be the wind industry’s next victim; it already has plenty of offshore industrial activity to contend with. But oil and gas extraction, international shipping, and commercial fishing have obvious embodied economic benefits. Whereas, the only economic benefit derived from wind power is the subsidies it attracts. No subsidies. … Continue reading Endangered Atlantic Right Whales Next Victims of Offshore Wind Power Push
Eagles Go Legal: Audubon Society Sues to Shutdown California’s Golden Eagle Mincers
The rampant slaughter of millions of birds and bats, including America’s iconic bald and golden eagles, is met with a shrug by wind power acolytes, everywhere. When confronted, the wind industry simply resorts to lies and obfuscation and – when the corpses can no longer be hidden and the lying fails – issue court proceedings in … Continue reading Eagles Go Legal: Audubon Society Sues to Shutdown California’s Golden Eagle Mincers
Not Right: Offshore Wind Turbines Threaten Endangered Atlantic Right Whales
The environmental destruction wreaked by offshore wind power is one almighty whale of a problem. While all power generation systems take a toll on the environment, it’s only the wind industry that claims moral superiority over all others. That tenuous claim – which rests on the ‘we’re saving the planet’ mantra chanted by the wind … Continue reading Not Right: Offshore Wind Turbines Threaten Endangered Atlantic Right Whales
Stunned Still: Offshore Wind Farm Power Cables Leave Crabs Mesmerised & Motionless
Seabirds, whales and dolphins aren’t offshore wind’s only victims - crabs are being mesmerised by the electromagnetic fields produced by the power cables that connect turbines to each other and to the grid. A scientific study has found that the magnetic fields generated by these cables attract crabs that then remain in place, fixated on … Continue reading Stunned Still: Offshore Wind Farm Power Cables Leave Crabs Mesmerised & Motionless
Norwegian Court Slams Noisy Wind Farms Wrecking Reindeer Herders’ Lives & Livelihoods
Norway’s Supreme Court has stripped two wind farms of their operating licenses for wrecking the lives of Sami reindeer herders. Life in the frozen North was never meant to be easy – sub-zero temperatures and stark isolation are tough enough, but Sami reindeer herders have drawn the line at the adverse effect the visual and … Continue reading Norwegian Court Slams Noisy Wind Farms Wrecking Reindeer Herders’ Lives & Livelihoods
Carcass Count Mounts: Wind Industry’s Mass Eagle Slaughter Continues Around the World
As the bird and bat carcass count mounts, it gets harder to ignore the wind industry’s bloody and unnecessary slaughter of our feathered friends. Those running ‘interference’ for the wind industry claim wind turbines couldn’t harm a fly, let alone kill birds of any consequence. Apparently having no experience of apex predators like Eagles, Kites, … Continue reading Carcass Count Mounts: Wind Industry’s Mass Eagle Slaughter Continues Around the World
Jumbo Noise Problem: Africa’s Elephants Hate Thumping Droning Wind Turbine Noise
Thumping, grinding wind turbine noise has always been the elephant in the room for the wind industry. Now, it’s the elephants themselves who’ve signalled just how annoying low-frequency wind turbine noise is. Renowned for their acutely sensitive hearing in the lower frequency register, the long-distance communication between Africa’s elephants is being drowned out by an … Continue reading Jumbo Noise Problem: Africa’s Elephants Hate Thumping Droning Wind Turbine Noise
