In renewables obsessed Australia these days, whenever the sun sets and/or calm weather sets, the talk inevitably turns to blackouts. Last summer, load shedding caught power consumers short in South Australia, Victoria and NSW. Energy hungry businesses such as aluminium smelters and even hospitals were forced to power down during a run of scorching … Continue reading Worthless Wind Power: Australia’s RE Debacle Deepens With 200,000 Victorian Households Left Powerless During Heatwave
Avian Exodus: Loons Vacate Vast Tracts of North Sea To Escape Wind Turbines

‘Green’ Energy Fail: Counting the Staggering Cost of Britain’s CO2 Emissions Reduction Policy

Leaving aside arguments about whether CO2 is a toxic pollutant or a naturally occurring beneficial trace gas which plants crave, the primary object of Britain’s effort to power … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Fail: Counting the Staggering Cost of Britain’s CO2 Emissions Reduction Policy
People Power: German Professors Lead 1,000 Anti-Wind Industry Groups in Assault on Toxic Wind Power
Overrun by 30,000 wind turbines, rural Germans are on the brink of revolt, with over 1,000 groups determined to win back their heartland. Dwarfed by 200m, 300 tonne behemoths, driven mad by practically incessant low-frequency noise and infrasound, or driven from their homes, tens of thousands of Germans have had enough. One of the … Continue reading People Power: German Professors Lead 1,000 Anti-Wind Industry Groups in Assault on Toxic Wind Power
Knuckle-Heads: Wind Industry Thugs Beat Up Welsh Grannies During Community Protest
There are few universal truths: community hostility to giant wind turbines is one, the thuggery employed by wind power outfits, is another. Wherever in the world the wind industry plies it subsidy-soaked trade, rural folk are treated as ‘roadkill’: lied to, bullied and beaten. As in the case of Jim Field, a 79-year-old disabled farmer … Continue reading Knuckle-Heads: Wind Industry Thugs Beat Up Welsh Grannies During Community Protest
Wealth Destroyers: Wind Turbines Crush Rural Property Values & Leave Many Homes Worthless
In Australia, hundreds of law-abiding rural citizens have had their valuable property rights permanently destroyed by wind power outfits – with knowing assistance from all levels of government.
