Spearing thousands of wind turbines into rural communities and carpeting them with endless seas of solar panels is only just the beginning. To connect those hopelessly intermittent power sources to market requires thousands of (otherwise unnecessary) kilometres of additional transmission lines. All of that environmental destruction could have readily been avoided had Australia simply maintained … Continue reading Why Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Spells Inevitable Environmental Disaster

If Your Community’s Fighting the Wind Industry – Keep Fighting, No Matter What
No matter where the wind industry plies its subsidy-soaked trade, rural folk soon turn hostile. Smart communities start fighting early and never give up.

400,000 Americans Join Effort to Kill Offshore Wind Industry & Save Endangered Whales
America’s offshore wind industry has an almighty whale of a problem. Sensible folk are no longer enamoured of an industry that is killing the last members of endangered whale species in droves with absolute impunity, thanks to the government-backed licenses that allow them to (quite lawfully) kill an unlimited number of whales, porpoises and dolphins … Continue reading 400,000 Americans Join Effort to Kill Offshore Wind Industry & Save Endangered Whales
Not In Anyone’s Backyard: The Truth Behind Rural America’s Great Wind & Solar Backlash
Eco-zealots, like Bill McKibben reckon rural folk just can’t wait to get 240m high wind turbines whirling in their backyard; and that if they express any resistance to such a ‘golden opportunity’, it’s all down to the nefarious activities of ‘evil’ fossil fuel overlords and right wingers spreading “misinformation” about how wonderful it is … Continue reading Not In Anyone’s Backyard: The Truth Behind Rural America’s Great Wind & Solar Backlash
Blaze of Glory: Life-Threatening Wind Turbine Fires Way More Common Than People Think
Wind turbine fires are ten times more common than the wind industry and its parasites claim (see our post here and check out this website: http://turbinesonfire.org). Americans have had more than their fair share of fiery 'green' energy excitement - see our posts here, here and here. The wind industry has been forced to concede that at least … Continue reading Blaze of Glory: Life-Threatening Wind Turbine Fires Way More Common Than People Think

Plenty start out as fans of wind and solar power and turn against it, but it's hard to find opponents who later become supporters. Present the facts to reasonable people, and they’ll want to know how the wind and solar scam got started in the first place and why it hasn’t been stopped in its … Continue reading Chasing The ‘Green’ Energy Dream: Or ‘How I Wasted 20 Years of My Life’
No ‘Right’ Place: Industrial Wind Turbines Don’t Belong In ANYONE’S Backyard
As wind turbines are incapable of generating power on demand and wouldn’t last a second without massive subsidies, there is no ‘right’ place for them. Any power generation source that can’t deliver electricity on demand is pointless, so talk about appropriate siting is pure nonsense. Why bother? Rent seekers and crony capitalists are the only … Continue reading No ‘Right’ Place: Industrial Wind Turbines Don’t Belong In ANYONE’S Backyard
