Critters Crushed, Forests Trashed: Welcome To Your (Occasionally) Wind Powered Future
The wind and solar ‘industries’ profit from two tier environmental regulation.

All Hail Nuclear: Because Solar Panels Can’t Survive Hailstorms or Hurricanes

Anyone recommending solar power as a solution to our growing need for electrical energy needs their head read. Certain parts of the world suffer regular, violent hailstorms, where hailstones outsize golf … Continue reading All Hail Nuclear: Because Solar Panels Can’t Survive Hailstorms or Hurricanes
No Deal: More Panicked Farmers Join Rush to Rip-up Contracts to Host Wind Turbines

Dismal Failure: Wind Industry Delivers Dark-Ages (Occasional) Power Generation
