Which is one reason why AI promoters are quietly rejecting chaotically intermittent wind and solar. There’s nothing vaguely Intelligent about … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 15 June 2025

But trying to explain wind turbine noise to someone who has never had to live with it, is like trying to explain a migraine to someone who has never had a headache. A recent study from … Continue reading Guilty: Proof Low-Frequency Wind Turbine Noise Destroys People’s Ability to Sleep
Unnatural Environment: New University Study Nails Wind Turbine Noise Nuisance
The wind industry has been lying for years about the nature and effects of wind turbine noise and they’ve paid acoustic consultants a veritable fortune to do so, on their behalf. It’s criminal, to be sure, and at a government-backed, corporate scale. However, slowly but surely, ethical researchers and experts are building a body of … Continue reading Unnatural Environment: New University Study Nails Wind Turbine Noise Nuisance
Industrial Noise Overload: What Makes Wind Turbine Noise So Soul Destroying
For those unfortunates forced to live with incessant turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound, the cause of their inability to sleep is no mystery. For a taste of what life with these things is really like, why not start with Clive and Trina Gare (South Australian farmers paid $200,000 per year to host 19 2MW … Continue reading Industrial Noise Overload: What Makes Wind Turbine Noise So Soul Destroying
