The wind industry has been slaughtering millions of birds, bats and insects for years; and offshore it’s been killing off whales and dolphins, as well. All power generation systems takes a toll on the environment, but it's only the wind industry that claims moral superiority over all others. That tenuous claim - which rests on … Continue reading On The Beach: Whales Deafened By Offshore Wind Turbine Noise Die Stranded Onshore
French Resistance: Brewing Rural Revolt Against Great Wind Power Swindle
The hatred of industrial wind turbines being speared across their rural landscape has stirred the renowned French passion for resistance and revolt. Not so long ago, French renewable energy rent seekers thought they could count on their countrymen’s love of énergie éolienne to provide a social licence to carpet France in these things and to … Continue reading French Resistance: Brewing Rural Revolt Against Great Wind Power Swindle
Setting It Straight: Nuclear Power Sets the Gold Standard For Safe & Reliable Power Generation
The French get 85% of their power from nuclear plants and haven’t suffered so much as a scratch since they started in 1962. By contrast, the wind industry (which really only got off the ground in the late 1990s and still generates a trifling amount of electricity) has clocked up around 190 fatalities, so far (eg, … Continue reading Setting It Straight: Nuclear Power Sets the Gold Standard For Safe & Reliable Power Generation
Renewable Energy Transition: Wind & Solar Obsession Leaves Germans Suffering the World’s Highest Power Prices
The only things 'inevitable' about ‘transitioning’ to wind and solar are rocketing power prices, load shedding and mass blackouts. Ask a German or South Australian. Renewable energy zealots keep telling us that wind and solar are free and getting cheaper all the time. Germany puts paid to that lie, as does Denmark and South Australia, … Continue reading Renewable Energy Transition: Wind & Solar Obsession Leaves Germans Suffering the World’s Highest Power Prices
Retro-Power: Australia’s Wind & Solar Obsession Delivers Third World Power Supply
Australia’s obsession with intermittent wind and solar is delivering a power supply you’d expect to find in the darkest corners of the Third World. Yet again, peak power demand in summer has renewable energy zealots berating consumers for having the temerity to turn on air-conditioners, dishwashers and appliances. Yet again, the same zealots waffle on … Continue reading Retro-Power: Australia’s Wind & Solar Obsession Delivers Third World Power Supply
Icy Killer: Motorists Forced to Dodge Huge Chunks of Ice Thrown From Wind Turbine Blades
Wind power’s meant to be clean, green and safe as houses, but these things have a habit of hurling deadly chunks of ice at people on foot, motorists and the buildings people occupy. Throwing 10 tonne blades hundreds of metres, and chunks thereof, for kilometres isn’t the limit of the wholly unnecessary risk created by giant industrial wind … Continue reading Icy Killer: Motorists Forced to Dodge Huge Chunks of Ice Thrown From Wind Turbine Blades
Are Friends Electric: Push for Industrial Electrification Exposes Costly Futility of Intermittent Wind & Solar
In their sillier moments, wind and solar advocates claim that we’ll all soon be driving electric vehicles, lovingly recharged with sunshine and breezes. In Australia, those seemingly virtuous souls with EVs are really being propelled by coal, because 85% of the electricity passing through its Eastern grid comes from coal-fired plants. It's an irony, to … Continue reading Are Friends Electric: Push for Industrial Electrification Exposes Costly Futility of Intermittent Wind & Solar
Long Road to Run: Fossil Fuels Powering the Planet Now & For Generations To Come
Renewable energy rent seekers have turned the ‘it’s a climate catastrophe’ dial all the way to 11 in an effort to convince us that our only salvation is an all sun and wind powered future. At the top end of town where bank executives and institutional investors roam, the propaganda is directed at convincing ‘the … Continue reading Long Road to Run: Fossil Fuels Powering the Planet Now & For Generations To Come
Money For Jam: Intermittent & Unreliable Wind & Solar The Greatest Subsidy Scam In History
The so-called wind and solar ‘industries’ were built on lies, myths and propaganda and run on subsidies. As wind power ‘investor’ Warren Buffett put it: “We get a tax credit if we build a lot of wind farms. That’s the only reason to build them. They don’t make sense without the tax credit.” Buffett might … Continue reading Money For Jam: Intermittent & Unreliable Wind & Solar The Greatest Subsidy Scam In History
Ever-Dependable: Coal-Fired Power Keeps On Keeping On During Australia’s Bushfire Battle
Of the more delusional claims made by wind power proponents, the notion that wind power is more dependable and reliable than coal-fired power, takes the cake. Back in December, Victoria’s Premier, Daniel Andrews revealed his tenuous grip on reality when he made the very same assertion: Deranged & Delusional: Victorian Government Claims Wind & Solar … Continue reading Ever-Dependable: Coal-Fired Power Keeps On Keeping On During Australia’s Bushfire Battle
