With an economic lifespan of around 15 years, thousands of these things are already on life support and hundreds are already terminal. When their palliative care reaches the end-of-life phase, it’s time to call in the demolition squad to do their darndest. The video below of 90 Mitsubishi turbines being dropped to earth with tons … Continue reading Demolition Squad: What Happens to Worn Out Wind Turbines? They Get Blown to Bits

Rapacious Renewables: How The Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Is Devouring the Planet
Crony capitalists aren’t just promoting subsidised wind and solar, they see subsidised Electric Vehicles as yet another means of lining their pockets with taxpayers’ money. The marketing pitch is that this is all for the good of the Planet. Whirling wonders lovingly caressing breezes to capture ‘free energy’; energy-rich sunbeams falling gently onto sheets of … Continue reading Rapacious Renewables: How The Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Is Devouring the Planet
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
It Just Ain’t Green: Endless Environmental Havoc Caused By Industrial Wind & Solar Power
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. However, long before the panels and blades get … Continue reading It Just Ain’t Green: Endless Environmental Havoc Caused By Industrial Wind & Solar Power
Joe Biden’s Offshore Wind Energy Mirage: Or ‘How To Squander $Trillions of Taxpayers’ Money’
For an example of how unhinged the Democrat’s energy policy is, then Biden’s offshore wind energy plan takes the cake. The fact that offshore wind power has already proven to be a phenomenally expensive way of generating electricity clearly hasn’t registered. Nor has the fact that it’s no more reliable than wind power generated onshore, … Continue reading Joe Biden’s Offshore Wind Energy Mirage: Or ‘How To Squander $Trillions of Taxpayers’ Money’
‘Green’ Monster: Biden’s Wind Power Plan Destroys Offshore Fisheries & Threatens Endangered Whales
Joe Biden and his Squad of wind worshipping lunatics are hellbent on destroying the livelihoods of America’s Atlantic fishermen, and much more besides. Endangered Right Whales are in the gun, as well. [Note to Ed: remember when lefties used to exhort us to Save the Whales?] Big spending Biden wants to squander untold $billions of … Continue reading ‘Green’ Monster: Biden’s Wind Power Plan Destroys Offshore Fisheries & Threatens Endangered Whales
Black Forest’s Bleak Future: German Wilderness Wiped Out to Make Way For 1,000 Wind Turbines
Apparently, turning wilderness into smouldering ash is all for the greater good, provided it’s to make way for 260m high/300 tonne industrial juggernauts, aka wind turbines. Germany has speared over 30,000 of these things across its countryside. As land for doing so has become increasingly scarce, the strategy has been to clear-fell forests that were … Continue reading Black Forest’s Bleak Future: German Wilderness Wiped Out to Make Way For 1,000 Wind Turbines
Land Hunger Games: Biden’s Plan to Carpet America With Energy Diffuse Wind & Solar
It’s not just wind and solar power’s pathetic performance that makes the whole virtue signalling exercise so utterly pointless. It’s also the fact that, to generate anything other than a trivial amount of electricity, you need the best part of a continent’s land area to do it. To accommodate 2,000 MW of coal, gas or … Continue reading Land Hunger Games: Biden’s Plan to Carpet America With Energy Diffuse Wind & Solar
Why Not Get Out & See Nature? Before The Wind Industry Destroys It – For Good
It’s not just the visual and aural cacophony these things create, it’s what they destroy that troubles the real environmentalist. It is not just the fact that giant industrial wind turbines are slaughtering millions of birds and bats every year that rankles. It’s also the gross industrialisation of landscapes, once cherished by those in love … Continue reading Why Not Get Out & See Nature? Before The Wind Industry Destroys It – For Good
North Sea Annihilation: Offshore Wind Power Destroying Marine Environment In New & Exciting Ways
Energy generation systems of all descriptions take their toll, but only one of them claims moral superiority over all others. That increasingly tenuous claim rests on the ‘we’re saving the planet’ mantra – chanted by the wind cult around the Globe. Offshore wind turbine noise and vibration has clocked up a number of Cetacean fatalities, … Continue reading North Sea Annihilation: Offshore Wind Power Destroying Marine Environment In New & Exciting Ways
