There’s a landfill legacy being created by wind turbine blades, with the First World cynically using the Third World as its dumping ground: ‘Green’ Energy’s Poisonous Legacy: Millions of Toxic Turbine Blades Destined for African Landfills Thousands of 45-70m blades (weighing between 10 to 25 tonnes) are being ground up and mixed with concrete used in the bases … Continue reading Spreading Scourge: Wind Turbine Blades Shedding Toxic Plastics During Operation

Transmission Break: Frequently Faulty Cables Costing Offshore Wind Power Generators Hundreds of $Millions
Turns out offshore wind power is more financial heartbreak than cash cow. Thanks to the phenomenal cost of repairing its undersea cables, Denmark’s Orsted is literally bleeding cash. The cost of fixing faulty cables connecting their turbines to each other and transmission facilities onshore is already in the hundreds of $millions, and set to rise … Continue reading Transmission Break: Frequently Faulty Cables Costing Offshore Wind Power Generators Hundreds of $Millions
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’
Offshore Wind Power All at Sea: Danish Wind Farm Operator Suffers Massive Financial Losses
Apart from literally burning cash, there is no faster way to squander money than by piling it into an offshore wind power project. It’s hardly news that the true cost of generating electricity using wind power is staggering; the cost of doing so offshore is astronomical. Instead of producing ‘free’ energy with purportedly ‘endless’ sea breezes, offshore … Continue reading Offshore Wind Power All at Sea: Danish Wind Farm Operator Suffers Massive Financial Losses
‘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
Counting the Staggering Cost of Biden’s Offshore Wind Power Plans: Power Costs Set to Double
With Joe Biden and the Squad in the White House, American power consumers should strap themselves in for a very wild ride. Under his plans to spear or anchor 10,000 or more giant industrial wind turbines into the seafloor off America’s Atlantic coast, it’s not just the marine environment and fishermen who will suffer the … Continue reading Counting the Staggering Cost of Biden’s Offshore Wind Power Plans: Power Costs Set to Double
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
Flotilla of Furious Fishermen Blockade Wind Developer’s Efforts to Destroy Fishing Grounds & Much More
Be it farmers or fishermen, locals soon recognise that the charlatans pushing wind power couldn’t care less about their lives and livelihoods. Fishermen are a fearless and tenacious bunch, renowned for their salty language. Back in July 2018, hopeful wind developers planning to destroy fishing grounds off the New Jersey coast copped a taste of … Continue reading Flotilla of Furious Fishermen Blockade Wind Developer’s Efforts to Destroy Fishing Grounds & Much More
Hide & Seek: The Staggering Cost of Offshore Wind Power Revealed
Renewable energy rent seekers and their propagandists are diligent in their efforts to hide the true costs of wind power from the punters. Their smoke and mirrors ‘accounting’ religiously ignores the cost of providing power from a meaningful source, whenever calm weather sets in. And their ‘wind power is cheapest of all’ claims always gloss … Continue reading Hide & Seek: The Staggering Cost of Offshore Wind Power Revealed
Command & Control: Subsidised Wind Power Central to Britain’s Great Socialist Reset
As Margaret Thatcher put it: “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.” That adage, however, doesn’t appear to trouble Britain’s current PM, Boris Johnson, whose plan to squander a further £50,000,000,000 on subsidies and over-the-market contracts for intermittent offshore wind power beggars belief. But that colossal crony-capitalist boondoggle, … Continue reading Command & Control: Subsidised Wind Power Central to Britain’s Great Socialist Reset
