*** Kiwis fight. And we are not talking about the dowdy little flightless birds that scurry about on the forest floor at night. The Maori are a people who fought their British colonists to a standstill in the early 19th century and forced upon them the Treaty of Waitangi, which enshrined terms the envy of … Continue reading Kiwi Community Backlash Forces Wind Farm Shutdown & Gets All New Noise Rules

Greeks Rally Against Subsidised Wind Power & Wind Industry’s Unlawful Land Grabs

Germany’s Wind Power Debacle Worsens: Too Much Power One Day, None the Next
*** Like South Australians, Germans are attempting to run on sunshine and breezes and in both places the results have been an unmitigated disaster.

Europe Squanders €1.1 trillion on Wind & Solar: But Gets Only 4% of its Power from Sun & Wind
This piece was published last year, but the message is so stark it's well-worth revisiting.
