Private Property: Wind & Solar Outfits Have No Right to Destroy Your Community

That hard-working farmers and rural folk reject the ‘opportunity’ to be overrun by giant industrial wind turbines and endless seas of solar panels is no surprise. Why would anyone in their senses welcome the single most destructive force into their communities: subsidised wind and solar. Peaceful, prosperous and productive farming communities worked out long ago … Continue reading Private Property: Wind & Solar Outfits Have No Right to Destroy Your Community

No Go Zones: How The Wind Industry Has Wrecked Rural Communities Everywhere

Abandoning perfectly habitable homes to escape neighbouring industrial wind turbine aggregations is a serious response aimed at avoiding a perpetually miserable future. Being deprived of the opportunity to live, sleep in and otherwise enjoy one’s own home is bad enough. Losing that fundamental proprietary (indeed human) right without compensation is criminal - the perpetrators are … Continue reading No Go Zones: How The Wind Industry Has Wrecked Rural Communities Everywhere

Total Disaster: Why Offshore Wind Power Is So Costly & Environmentally Destructive

Here’s everything you wanted to know about offshore wind power, and it’s all bad. The cost of generating occasional electricity offshore is positively insane, and getting worse. And that’s just to focus on the economics. Then there’s the mounting and irreparable environmental harm - ecologically destructive and deadly to marine mammals, as well as fishing … Continue reading Total Disaster: Why Offshore Wind Power Is So Costly & Environmentally Destructive

Wind Industry’s Tree Wipeout Hits New Low With Plans to Destroy Veterans’ Memorial

The land area destroyed to house a couple of wind turbines (often in pristine forests) compares unfavourably with the area needed to house a single nuclear power plant. See above - the area gouged out of one of Queensland’s (previously untouched) tropical rainforests to allow space for just two of these things - huge strips … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Tree Wipeout Hits New Low With Plans to Destroy Veterans’ Memorial

Real Environmentalists Back Safe, Reliable & Affordable Nuclear Power

The faux environmentalist is easy to spot: he loves industrial wind power and couldn’t care less about the environmental destruction it causes. Faced with the rampant slaughter of birds and bats, he initially denies the evidence and then pushes the moral equivalence button, claiming that more birds are killed by cats, cars and skyscrapers. Ignoring … Continue reading Real Environmentalists Back Safe, Reliable & Affordable Nuclear Power

Wind Industry’s Wanton Whale Slaughter Caused by Constant Deafening Construction Noise

Try as they might, the offshore wind industry can’t conceal the fact that their construction operations are killing hundreds of whales, dolphins, seals and much, much more. The underwater cacophony created during offshore construction is laid out in Michael Shellenberger’s documentary Thrown To The Wind (see the video below) and this post: US Govt Lying … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Wanton Whale Slaughter Caused by Constant Deafening Construction Noise

Aboriginal Communities Unite to Stop These Things Wrecking Precious Animal Habitat

The wind industry’s planet saving methods include trashing pristine tropical rainforest and smashing the critters that once peacefully inhabited those forests, including Australia’s iconic koala. In our recent post - Licenced Exterminators: Government Greenlights Wind Industry’s Mass Koala Kill - we noted the instructions given by a wind farm operator to construction workers in dealing … Continue reading Aboriginal Communities Unite to Stop These Things Wrecking Precious Animal Habitat

Zombie Apocalypse: Wind Industry Faces Total Collapse With More Projects Scrapped

The wind industry is looking a lot like a zombie apocalypse; evidently dead on its feet, but refusing to accept its mortality and die with dignity. The offshore wind industry in the US looks like a bloodbath, with dozens of major projects scrapped outright. Investors have pulled the plug, never to return. In Australia dozens … Continue reading Zombie Apocalypse: Wind Industry Faces Total Collapse With More Projects Scrapped

Slash & Burn: The Cult Hates Coal-Fired Power But Loves Whole Forest-Fired Power

The cult demonises coal for the CO2 it releases, but without a hint of irony reckons that the CO2 released from wood is a completely different molecule. Adding the term ‘biomass’ to the millions of tonnes of timber stripped from the forests of the northern hemisphere apparently makes all the difference. Whereas the term ‘dirty’ … Continue reading Slash & Burn: The Cult Hates Coal-Fired Power But Loves Whole Forest-Fired Power

Real ‘Green’ Energy: Germany Bulldozes Ancient Fairytale Forest For Wind Turbines

If the wilderness being turned into smouldering ash is used as a platform for hundreds of 260m high/300 tonne industrial juggernauts, it’s all for the greater good (as in the case above, where huge areas of pristine tropical rainforest is being wiped out in Far North Queensland to make way for hundreds of these things). … Continue reading Real ‘Green’ Energy: Germany Bulldozes Ancient Fairytale Forest For Wind Turbines
