Any country that signed up to the subsidised wind and solar scam is facing the inevitable power pricing and supply calamity that follows. Now that they’re facing the inevitable backlash from taxpayers and power consumers (ie voters), many of those same countries are quietly crab walking away from the avoidable disasters they created. The outbreak … Continue reading Stop These Things’ Weekly Round Up: 13 July 2025

What Wind Turbines Are Made Of: Endless Mountains of Minerals and Energy
The way the wind cult tells it, you’d think these things were made in heaven using moonbeams and fairy dust. The reality is altogether more industrial. Every wind turbine is the product of a myriad of minerals consumed in enormous quantities, along with staggering amounts of energy needed to combine them all into a machine … Continue reading What Wind Turbines Are Made Of: Endless Mountains of Minerals and Energy
Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Forces Poor to Transfer Their (Meagre) Wealth to the (Already) Wealthy
The grand wind and solar scam was designed so a few get to profit outrageously at the expense of the many - and they’re called ‘rent seekers’ for good reason: Rent-seeking is an economic concept that occurs when an entity seeks to gain wealth without any reciprocal contribution of productivity. An example of rent-seeking is … Continue reading Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Forces Poor to Transfer Their (Meagre) Wealth to the (Already) Wealthy
‘Green’ Energy Myth Exposed: Subsidised Wind & Solar Scam Built On Perpetual Lies
The wind and solar industries were founded on myth, built on lies and run on subsidies. The only thing they are capable of producing on a consistent basis are Pinocchio-style whoppers, starting with the notion that wind and solar power are actually good for the environment. Breached promises about delivering power on demand are met … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Myth Exposed: Subsidised Wind & Solar Scam Built On Perpetual Lies
Not Green: Eagles Constant Victims of Wind Industry’s Endless Bird Slaughter
With the world’s wind turbines slicing and dicing thousands of eagles, owls, hawks, and kites every day, wind farms are more slaughterhouses than power generators. Millions of tonnes of beneficial bugs get splattered annually, along with millions of birds and bats, some of them being among the last of their kind. At the apex of the avian … Continue reading Not Green: Eagles Constant Victims of Wind Industry’s Endless Bird Slaughter
Endangered Atlantic Right Whales Next Victims of Offshore Wind Power Push
The endangered Atlantic Right Whale appears to be the wind industry’s next victim; it already has plenty of offshore industrial activity to contend with. But oil and gas extraction, international shipping, and commercial fishing have obvious embodied economic benefits. Whereas, the only economic benefit derived from wind power is the subsidies it attracts. No subsidies. … Continue reading Endangered Atlantic Right Whales Next Victims of Offshore Wind Power Push
Green Civil War: Grassroots Environmental Groups Turn On Wind & Solar ‘Industries’
The faux environmentalist is easy to spot: they love industrial wind and solar power and couldn’t care less about the unbridalled environmental destruction they cause. Faced with the rampant slaughter of birds and bats, he or she initially denies the evidence and then pushes the moral equivalence button, claiming that more birds are killed by … Continue reading Green Civil War: Grassroots Environmental Groups Turn On Wind & Solar ‘Industries’
Energy Insecurity: Biden’s Policies Leave Americans Vulnerable to Unreliable Wind & Solar
With the magnitude of the renewable energy-driven disaster playing out in Europe hard to ignore, it seems incredible that American Green New Deal Democrats remain fixated on chaotically intermittent wind and solar. And yet, they show no signs of relenting on their determined path to inevitable energy insecurity; an approach that borders on National treachery. … Continue reading Energy Insecurity: Biden’s Policies Leave Americans Vulnerable to Unreliable Wind & Solar
Getting Away With ‘Green’ Murder: Wind Industry Destroying Vast Tracts of Australian Wilderness
Vast tracts of Australia’s tropical and sub-tropical forests are being destroyed to make way for giant industrial wind turbines. Running like a spine down the east coast of Australia, the Great Dividing Range is prime real estate for renewable energy rent-seekers, keen on spearing 260m high monsters into territory that tree huggers used to hold … Continue reading Getting Away With ‘Green’ Murder: Wind Industry Destroying Vast Tracts of Australian Wilderness
Billions of Wind Turbine Blades Built With Balsa Wood Stripped From Amazon’s Forests
Green groups are starting to rumble the fact that wind power ain’t so green, after all. Giant industrial wind turbines comprise hundreds of tonnes of steel, aluminium, plastics, copper and rare earths used in the generator’s magnets. There is also at least a tonne of gear oil and hydraulic fluid on board. And then there’s … Continue reading Billions of Wind Turbine Blades Built With Balsa Wood Stripped From Amazon’s Forests
