The ‘feelgood’ net-zero emissions narrative has been shielding wind and solar scammers from proper scrutiny for years. With that narrative in political tatters, panicked rent seekers are running for cover. The great unwashed are now alive to the staggering cost and pointless benefits (never properly defined) of cutting man-made carbon oxide gas emissions - purportedly … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 2 November 2025

Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 30 March 2025
As the USA returns to energy sanity - driven by Donald Trump’s determination to destroy the wind industry and embrace, coal, gas and nuclear - any country still obsessed with chaotically intermittent and heavily subsidised wind and solar looks positively bonkers. Australia sits firmly in that category. However, with a Federal election set for 3 … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 30 March 2025
Terminal Decline: China’s Double-Headed Wind Turbine Signals Industry’s Last Gasp
The wind industry started out as absurd, and only became more so over time. The turbines became bigger, the blades longer and capacities went from piddling 1.5 MW machines to 18MW monsters - albeit so large they can barely stand up against stiff breezes, let alone a full-blown hurricane. As the blades grew, their habit … Continue reading Terminal Decline: China’s Double-Headed Wind Turbine Signals Industry’s Last Gasp

The Big ‘Renewable’ Energy Lie: Not Cheap, Not Clean, Not Green
Even the proles have worked out that wind and solar aren’t cheap, they aren’t clean and they most certainly aren’t green. Their rocketing power bills are enough evidence to dispose of the ‘cheap’ wind and solar myth. Millions of tonnes of spent solar panels and toxic wind turbine blades being ground up and heading to … Continue reading The Big ‘Renewable’ Energy Lie: Not Cheap, Not Clean, Not Green

Thanks to sites like this one, community defenders can spot the lies … Continue reading Perfectly Justified: Furious Communities Reject Wind & Solar Rollout
Wind & Solar Scammers’ Propaganda Pitch Attempts to Bury Community Opposition
The wind and solar scam has always benefited from the MSM’s gooey-eyed love of ‘renewable energy’, as they parrot it. Most hacks and commentators are nothing more than propagandists. And they have been at it for more than 20 years, which means it takes some effort to peel away the lies, myths and hyperbole and … Continue reading Wind & Solar Scammers’ Propaganda Pitch Attempts to Bury Community Opposition
Hostility Mounts: Rural Communities Ready to Explode Against Wind & Solar Onslaught
Visit any rural community targeted for industrial wind turbines and solar panels and/or the transmission lines needed to support them, and the rage is truly palpable. Faced with hundreds of 280m high, 300 tonne turbines speared into pristine bush and prime farmland, seas of solar panels - that seemingly stretch to the horizon - and … Continue reading Hostility Mounts: Rural Communities Ready to Explode Against Wind & Solar Onslaught
Locals’ War Against Industrial Wind Power Spreading Like Turbines On Fire
America’s rural communities hate industrial wind power with a passion and they fight. Well-organised and litigious, since 2015 America’s community defenders have knocked out over 600 industrial scale wind and solar projects, so far – see Robert Bryce’s Renewable Rejection Database. And they’re not about to let up. A wind power outfit backed by the … Continue reading Locals’ War Against Industrial Wind Power Spreading Like Turbines On Fire
