Enviro-Frauds: Wind & Solar Ain’t ‘Clean’ & Certainly Ain’t ‘Green’
Call wind and solar whatever you like, but there’s simply no rational basis to call them ‘clean’ or ‘green’. Both chew up monumental volumes of minerals, chemicals, rare earths and energy just to create the panels and turbines. Both leave monumental volumes of waste when turbines and panels are spent – after a decade or … Continue reading Enviro-Frauds: Wind & Solar Ain’t ‘Clean’ & Certainly Ain’t ‘Green’

Ugly Truth: Wind & Solar Delivering Environmental Destruction On Grand Global Scale
It's getting harder to ignore the thousands of wind turbine blades and millions of solar panels piling up in landfills, leaving an already mountainous and growing toxic waste legacy for future generations to deal with. In 2023, anyone still touting the putative benefits of wind and solar is either suffering from a form of blissful … Continue reading Ugly Truth: Wind & Solar Delivering Environmental Destruction On Grand Global Scale
‘Renewables’ Reality Check: Exposing Filthy Truth About Our Wind & Solar Powered ‘Nirvana’
Pull the curtain back on the wind and solar ‘industries’ and you’re in for a filthy and even toxic surprise. Do a little digging, so to speak, and you’ll soon understand that there is absolutely nothing ‘green’ about wind and solar power or, more precisely, what goes into making 300 tonne wind turbines and their … Continue reading ‘Renewables’ Reality Check: Exposing Filthy Truth About Our Wind & Solar Powered ‘Nirvana’
Sucker Punched: Farmers Who Sign Up For Wind Turbines On Their Land Always Live to Regret It
When the wind industry fiasco inevitably grinds to a halt sometime in the next decade, those that entertained it – be it gullible farmers who traded 30 pieces of silver to destroy their communities or the local governments that rubber-stamped the planning applications that permitted it – are going to be left with a monumental cleanup … Continue reading Sucker Punched: Farmers Who Sign Up For Wind Turbines On Their Land Always Live to Regret It
‘Clean’ Energy Scourge: Wind Turbine Blades Shedding Tonnes of Toxic Microplastics
Sure, the millions of wind turbine blades headed for landfill will leave a toxic legacy for centuries to come, but these things create an even more immediate threat. Their 40-90m blades naturally erode during operation, spreading tonnes of microplastics far and wide. The epoxy compounds they shed contain toxins that are finding their way into … Continue reading ‘Clean’ Energy Scourge: Wind Turbine Blades Shedding Tonnes of Toxic Microplastics
Planet Strippers: Amazon’s Balsa Forests Being Raped To Make Wind Turbine Blades
Stripping the Amazon basin’s forests of balsa to make wind turbine blade is all part of our ‘inevitable’ transition. So is turning rural China into a toxic industrial wasteland (see above). Giant industrial wind turbines comprise hundreds of tonnes of steel, aluminium, plastics, copper and rare earths used in the generator’s magnets. There is also … Continue reading Planet Strippers: Amazon’s Balsa Forests Being Raped To Make Wind Turbine Blades

Toxic Blade Time Bomb: New Study Exposes Scale of Wind Industry’s Poisonous Plastics Legacy
Landfills are the final destination for millions of worn-out wind turbine blades, where their toxic plastics will be left to rot for the ‘benefit’ of generations to come. These 10-20 tonne, 40-60m long chunks of plastic, fibreglass, balsa wood and resins can’t be recycled, so the wind industry has been dumping them quietly for years … Continue reading Toxic Blade Time Bomb: New Study Exposes Scale of Wind Industry’s Poisonous Plastics Legacy
