The wind and solar industry’s sales pitch has been exemplary, but their product delivery and after-sales service is pure rubbish. Incapable of delivering electricity on demand, wind and solar will never amount to anything other than an effort in pointless vanity signalling. It’s late 2023, and the wind industry’s glory days are long gone: investment … Continue reading Global Wind Industry’s Sudden Collapse Proves Physics Beats Platitudes, Every Time

‘Green’ Energy’s Demand For Rare Earths Driving Wholesale Environmental Destruction
Solar panels, wind turbines and electric vehicles all critically depend upon a raft of minerals known as ‘rare earths’, as well as mountains of copper and cobalt. With the exponential increase in demand for minerals comes an exponential growth in the mountains of toxic filth left behind during mining and processing those minerals. The minerals … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy’s Demand For Rare Earths Driving Wholesale Environmental Destruction
Wind Turbine Wipeout: Rare & Endangered Eagles’ Days Are Numbered
The wind industry is battling on all fronts, including mounting community outrage, driven not least by its wanton slaughter of eagles, whales and other magnificent creatures. The outer tips of 60m wind turbine blades travelling at over 350kph make short work of avian predators, such as hawks, kites, falcons and eagles, including the rare and … Continue reading Wind Turbine Wipeout: Rare & Endangered Eagles’ Days Are Numbered
Alternating Ocean Currents: Offshore Wind Turbines The New Climate Drivers
Spear hundreds of 300m high wind turbines into ocean environments and it’s only natural that that environment changes. Downwind air currents are cut and buffeted by the blades of turbines up wind. The phenomenon known as ‘wake turbulence’ reduces output from each turbine within a cluster of turbines, because it reduces and interferes with wind … Continue reading Alternating Ocean Currents: Offshore Wind Turbines The New Climate Drivers
Clean, Safe & Reliable Nuclear Power the Environment’s Best Friend
Wind and solar have lost their ‘social licence’; the masses no longer believe the ‘clean and green’ propaganda. Wrecked communities, wrecked environments and wrecked economies are too difficult to hide or spin away. Once people get a grip on the great wind and solar scam, their conversion is irreversible. The original trope had it that … Continue reading Clean, Safe & Reliable Nuclear Power the Environment’s Best Friend
US Govt Lying About Offshore Wind Industry’s Whale Slaughter
The US government has been lying for years about the offshore wind industry’s pointless whale slaughter. It’s bad enough that it’s already provided the wind industry with a license to kill thousands of whales, dolphins, porpoises and seals - a ‘get out of jail free card’ - known as the ‘Incidental Harassment Authorization’. But, worse … Continue reading US Govt Lying About Offshore Wind Industry’s Whale Slaughter
No More: Time to Stop the Wind Industry Wrecking Our Pristine Forests
Destroying pristine forests and wrecking critical wildlife habitats is all in a day’s work for the wind industry. Whether it’s wiping out millions of trees across the Scottish Highlands, turning Germany’s Black Forest into sawdust and smoking ruins or ripping the Amazon basin apart to extract the millions of tonnes of balsa wood it needs to … Continue reading No More: Time to Stop the Wind Industry Wrecking Our Pristine Forests
Lack of Concentration: Wind & Solar Use Vast Tracts of Land to Deliver Occasional Power
The occasional generators - wind and solar deliver trivial amounts of electricity and take the best part of a continent to do it. Where land use matters, and it almost always matters, their lack of energy density is yet another reason why wind and solar will never amount to meaningful power generation sources; not now, … Continue reading Lack of Concentration: Wind & Solar Use Vast Tracts of Land to Deliver Occasional Power
Fishermen Fight to End to Offshore Wind Industry’s Wholesale Whale Slaughter
The wind industry's mindless slaughter of whales, dolphins, porpoises and seals is completely legit, thanks to government-backed licenses known as the ‘Incidental Harassment Authorization’. The principal cause of the carnage is the seismic geo-surveys conducted before the turbines get speared into the seabed. With their sonar systems duly scrambled by the underwater cacophony, the whales … Continue reading Fishermen Fight to End to Offshore Wind Industry’s Wholesale Whale Slaughter
Simply Shameless: ‘Green’ Energy ‘Transition’ Depends On Brutalizing Child Labour
The Western virtue signaller is untroubled by the myriad human rights abuses committed in their name. Firing up a Tesla in fashionable and leafy suburbs doesn’t connect them with the brutal conditions suffered by child labour in places like the Democratic Republic Congo where cobalt is being dug out of the ground by thousands of … Continue reading Simply Shameless: ‘Green’ Energy ‘Transition’ Depends On Brutalizing Child Labour
