The damage done by offshore wind farms to fishing grounds is met with practiced contempt by wind power outfits and malign indifference by their political enablers. Taking wind turbines out to sea not only escalates the cost of the occasional power they produce, it destroys coastal landscapes, birds and other marine life. And, as Robert Bradley explains below, spearing thousands of … Continue reading Greenlight For Offshore Wind Industry’s Wholesale Environmental Destruction

Ecological Nightmare: Wind & Solar Rollout Delivers Permanent Environmental Destruction
The wind and solar ‘industries’ are clear-felling ancient forests, bulldozing whole mountains, stripping the last remnants of fragile vegetation from deserts, killing endangered whales, eagles, bats and more, turning productive farmland into industrial wastelands and are being paid handsomely to do so by the governments you elect. Seems legit, right? As Bonner Cohan outlines below, … Continue reading Ecological Nightmare: Wind & Solar Rollout Delivers Permanent Environmental Destruction
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
Licenced Exterminators: Government Greenlights Wind Industry’s Mass Koala Kill
As the wind industry rips up huge tracts of Australia’s wilderness, including pristine tropical forests, the iconic koala is literally for the chop. The wind industry treats the koala as yet another expendable critter - just like whales, dolphins, eagles, hawks, bats and more. The US offshore wind industry has been given the green light … Continue reading Licenced Exterminators: Government Greenlights Wind Industry’s Mass Koala Kill
Hostility Mounts: Offshore Wind Power Disaster Attracts Serious Onshore Opposition
There’s no real argument in favour of offshore wind power, and plenty of serious arguments against. Start with the absolutely staggering cost, which has major proponents demanding even greater subsidies from taxpayers and/or higher prices in the guaranteed power contracts they ink with governments. With governments increasingly refusing to play ball, proponents are simply dropping … Continue reading Hostility Mounts: Offshore Wind Power Disaster Attracts Serious Onshore Opposition
Blown Away: World Waking Up To The Big ‘Green’ Energy Lie
Claiming that wind and solar are green is simply nuts. Delivering rubbish power and leaving mountains of toxic rubbish in their wake, solar panels and industrial wind turbines are the antithesis of ‘green’. Assuming that ‘green’ means friendly to environments, people and the communities that they live in? As Michael Shellenberger explains during this Chris … Continue reading Blown Away: World Waking Up To The Big ‘Green’ Energy Lie
Wind Industry’s Latest Victims: How Much ‘Green’ Hypocrisy Can a Koala Bear?
By trashing Australia’s pristine forests, the wind industry is wiping out critical habitat for the iconic koala. And the political cult that supports it, couldn’t care less. In a recent post, STT covered the work of Dominic Legoe, who is now part of a growing chorus of outrage about the way the Queensland and Federal … Continue reading Wind Industry’s Latest Victims: How Much ‘Green’ Hypocrisy Can a Koala Bear?
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
Delusional Groupthink Drives Obsession With Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar
As in life, government policy is about trade-offs, which usually means plumping for the good rather than the perfect. However, in the de-industrialising West, energy policy is all about rejecting the good in favour of the unworkable. The notion that weather-dependent wind, and weather and sunshine-dependent solar (with or without pumped hydro or mythical mega-batteries) … Continue reading Delusional Groupthink Drives Obsession With Chaotically Intermittent Wind & Solar
Habitual Habitat Destruction: Wind Industry Wiping Out Vast Tracts of Virgin Rainforest
https://youtu.be/ypA4XkmbNxk Once upon a time, environmentalists were known as ‘tree huggers’, these days the new ‘green’ cult can’t destroy them fast enough. In the Scottish Highlands, so far, they’ve wiped out over 14 million trees, spread over more than 17,000 acres to clear the way for thousands of these industrial monstrosities; and, no, they don’t replant … Continue reading Habitual Habitat Destruction: Wind Industry Wiping Out Vast Tracts of Virgin Rainforest
