Stop These Things’ Weekly Roundup: 3 November 2024
Since December 2012, Stop These Things has been slugging away, exposing the grand subsidised wind and solar scam. When the site was fired up by a handful of dedicated volunteers 12 years ago, it was one of a very few tackling the greatest economic and environmental fraud of all time. Not quite an orphan, but … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Roundup: 3 November 2024
Power For The People: Communities Revolt Against Great Wind Industry Scam
The wind industry lost the battle for hearts and minds, years ago. No one buys the lies anymore, and anyone who has given energy a moment’s consideration recognises this grand government-backed fraud for what it is. No sentient being believes that we will obtain anything like meaningful power from a chaotic system, entirely dependent upon … Continue reading Power For The People: Communities Revolt Against Great Wind Industry Scam
Not Cheap: Offshore Wind Power 4 Times the Cost of Gas and Nuclear Power
New Yorkers are paying a huge price of offshore wind power, which is 4 times the cost of their conventional supplies from gas and nuclear. So much for all that loose talk about wind power being cheap, clean and green. As Willis Eschenbach points out below, for an industry that brags about cost, wind power … Continue reading Not Cheap: Offshore Wind Power 4 Times the Cost of Gas and Nuclear Power
Floating Offshore Wind Turbines – Next Great Financial & Environmental Disaster
The environmental destruction caused by the offshore wind industry has completely flipped public opinion. The wanton destruction of marine habitats, fishing grounds and the wholesale slaughter of whales, dolphins and other marine mammals has drawn the same kind of attention that attracts people to multicar pileups. In this case, the characters responsible are easily identified … Continue reading Floating Offshore Wind Turbines – Next Great Financial & Environmental Disaster
Greenlight For Offshore Wind Industry’s Wholesale Environmental Destruction
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
Offshore Wind Power Carries Colossal Cost and Delivers Zero Benefits
Never capable of delivering power on demand, offshore wind is as pointless as pushing on string. As the most expensive way of (occasionally) generating electricity, only the terminally insane would consider investing a nickel. Which is why rent-seekers rigged the game with massive subsidies, mandates and tax breaks from the get go. The value of … Continue reading Offshore Wind Power Carries Colossal Cost and Delivers Zero Benefits
Hurricane Havoc: Next Big Blow Set to Destroy America’s Offshore Wind Turbines
If brand-new offshore wind turbines are liberating their 100m blades and distributing their toxic entrails along the Atlantic coastline during perfectly calm weather, imagine what a blistering Hurricane might do to the tens of thousands of blades that now flap above the ocean waves. In the video above, a vicious little twister makes short work … Continue reading Hurricane Havoc: Next Big Blow Set to Destroy America’s Offshore Wind Turbines
No Joy In New Jersey: Power Bills Double (Again) In Wind Power Obsessed State
The good folk in New Jersey are just the latest victims of the grand renewable energy ‘transition’. Politicos have backed foreign-owned offshore wind power outfits ahead of local reliable generators and the results are spelt out in black-and-white, with record retail power bills. Retail power prices have doubled in a heartbeat and the socialists in … Continue reading No Joy In New Jersey: Power Bills Double (Again) In Wind Power Obsessed State
