STT tends to leave the debate about global warming or 'climate change' to others. However, STT has always thought that if man-made CO2 emissions really were destroying the planet, then sensible governments would have moved to build nuclear power plants from the moment the Chicken Littles started wailing about the heavens collapsing. The French generate over … Continue reading Nuclear War Breaks Out: Eco-Warriors Split on the Only CO2 Saving Power Source

Americans Count the Insane Costs of Trying to Run On Wind Power
Americans enjoy the cheapest electricity in the World - thanks to ultra-cheap gas, plenty of nuclear power and a fair share of hydro among their power mix. However, how long its natural advantage over countries who have tied their hopes on the Wind Gods lasts, depends entirely on how soon it can pull the rug … Continue reading Americans Count the Insane Costs of Trying to Run On Wind Power
Remember Life Before Wind Turbines Were Speared Into the Heart of Your Community?
Remember all those glowing stories about wind power outfits being welcomed into rural communities with open arms? You know, tales about how farmers are dying to have turbines lined up all over their properties? How locals can’t wait to pick up some of the thousands of permanent, high paying jobs on offer? How developers are … Continue reading Remember Life Before Wind Turbines Were Speared Into the Heart of Your Community?
Bats’ Fatal Attraction to Wind Turbines
Bats and onshore wind turbines…a fatal attraction Energy Voice Jeremy Cresswell 5 August 2016 Concern over bats being killed by onshore wind turbines has been growing for several years and that worry has just been further reinforced by research in Germany. Wind turbines attract bats, apparently, or at least one species. They seem to appear particularly appealing … Continue reading Bats’ Fatal Attraction to Wind Turbines
Wind & Solar Power 2.5 to 5 Times More Expensive than Coal & Nuclear
Power costs matter. The wind industry keeps telling us that their product is 'free', and getting cheaper all the time. Trouble is, that the facts tend to differ. In the table above, in nuclear powered France, power consumers pay half the cost for power than those suffering along in wind powered Denmark. Maybe it's got … Continue reading Wind & Solar Power 2.5 to 5 Times More Expensive than Coal & Nuclear
Poland Bans Wind Power & Orders a Double Helping of Coal to Keep the Lights On
Over-run by these things, faced with thousand of furious neighbours demanding an end to the onslaught, and spiralling power costs, Poland has mounted an enormous about face: where wind power was the flavour of the month for a year or two, it’s been hit with an outright ban. Worse still for Polish wind-worshippers, their government, faced … Continue reading Poland Bans Wind Power & Orders a Double Helping of Coal to Keep the Lights On

Wind Warning to World Health Organization-Europe (turbine health effects in the crosshairs) Master Resource Sherri Lange 19 July 2016 “We are hopeful that your deliberations will result in tough new European guidelines which in turn will prompt a serious worldwide examination of all aspects of this problem, including the widely-reported effects on animals.” – Dr. … Continue reading WHO Investigates Health Effects of Wind Turbine Noise & Infrasound
Base-Load Matters: America Waking Up to its Wind Power Fantasy
For a populous detached from the realities of power generation (or similarly detached from reality, in general) the concept of running on 'free' breezes and sunbeams has an almost natural attraction. In much the same way that infants fixate on the colourful, the shiny and the new. But, most infants tend to eventually grow up: … Continue reading Base-Load Matters: America Waking Up to its Wind Power Fantasy
The Lunacy of Trying to Run on Wind Power
The Lunacy of Pledging to Eliminate Fossil Fuel Use since Wind and Solar Are Not the Answer to Much of Anything Carlin Economics and Science Alan Carlin 5 August 2016 Greatly increased human prosperity in some areas of the world over the last 150 years can be traced in large part to progressively greater access … Continue reading The Lunacy of Trying to Run on Wind Power
Bulk Battery Storage of Wind Power a Myth
In the fall-out over South Australia's wind powered economic and social calamity, the line has been repeatedly spun about fixing the mess with 'rapidly improving battery storage technology'. It is little more than a 'smoke and mirrors' pitch by the wind industry, its parasites and spruikers, designed to deflect attention from the fact that wind … Continue reading Bulk Battery Storage of Wind Power a Myth
