Crabs and lobsters are being mesmerised, deformed and crippled by the peculiar electromagnetic fields created by the cables that connect offshore wind turbines. A recent scientific study found that the magnetic fields generated by these cables attracts crabs that then remain in place, fixated on the magnetic field, effectively immobilising them. Now, another study relating … Continue reading Lobster Tales: Offshore Wind Farms Leave Lobsters With Deformed & Crippled Young

Forgive Them Not: No Excuse For Wind Industry’s Pointless Bird & Bat Slaughter
The utter pointlessness of the wind industry’s annual bird and bat slaughter is well-known to followers of this site. Power that can’t be delivered as and when it’s needed has no commercial value and when that purportedly ‘green’ power source slices and dices apex predators like salad onions, it’s hard to think of it as … Continue reading Forgive Them Not: No Excuse For Wind Industry’s Pointless Bird & Bat Slaughter
Deathly Silence: Green Groups Complicit in Wind Industry’s Endangered Eagle Slaughter
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
