Pollster’s claims about everyone being in favour of wind power hit a brick wall just as soon as wind turbines get speared into their backyards. Funny about that. Delivering a grinding, thumping, pulsing cacophony of low-frequency noise; destroying bog lands, waterways and poisoning underground water supplies; throwing 15 tonne blades to the four winds; sparking … Continue reading Norway Says ‘No Way’: Norwegian Government Faces Furious Backlash Against Industrial Wind Power

Farmers Fightback: For America’s Amish, ‘Freedom of Religion’ Means Freedom From Industrial Wind Turbines
Andrew Cuomo’s plan to carpet New York State with wind turbines has just collided with its Amish farming communities, fighting back along religious lines.

Farmers Fightback: Rural Americans Sick & Tired of Wind Developer Lies, Trickery & Deceit

Fightin’ Irish: Local Mob Goes To War Over Threatened Wind Farm
Community hostility to industrial wind power is inevitable, when the community in question is the one that ends up with 300 tonne monsters speared in its backyard.

The reason that human beings developed, harnessed and perfected thermal … Continue reading Living Nightmare: The Daily Misery Caused to Neighbours By Industrial Wind Turbines
Renewables ‘Transition’ Hits Roadblock: Germans Vote 25 to 1 to Reject Giant Wind Power Project
When given the choice, no rational human being would ever welcome giant industrial wind turbines in their community, let alone agree to have these things speared quite literally into their backyards.

German Resistance: Furious Rural Residents Bring Wind Farm Construction to Dead Halt
Much to the horror of wind power promoters, all eyes are on Germany at the minute, with its wind industry in freefall, turbine manufacturers in ruin and rural residents in revolt.
