Wind Power Sends German Power Prices Rocketing as CO2 Emissions Continue to Rise
Germany has long been the poster-child for the wind-cult, the World over. But the way things have panned out, wind worshippers will soon need another pin-up girl. The cost of its maniacal rush into massively subsidised wind and solar to German businesses and households has been astronomical and, in the mother of all ironies, CO2 … Continue reading Wind Power Sends German Power Prices Rocketing as CO2 Emissions Continue to Rise
Wind Power Chaos: South Australia Bound to Suffer Summertime Blackouts & Victoria’s ALP Government Determined to Follow Suit
*** Given the scale and scope of the calamity, the media’s continued forensic focus on South Australia’s recent Statewide blackout is thoroughly justified.

Queensland Labor Lunacy: Premier Vows to Follow South Australia Back to the Dark Ages
*** It was Albert Einstein that forecast the Australian approach to energy policy when he defined insanity as: “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Queensland’s capital, Brisbane is barely 1,600 km and 2 hours, 20 minutes flying time from Adelaide, but it appears that the news from South Australia … Continue reading Queensland Labor Lunacy: Premier Vows to Follow South Australia Back to the Dark Ages
Litigators Set to Recover $Millions in Blackout Losses Caused by SA’s Wind Power Shutdown

Subsidised Wind & Solar Power Wrecking California’s Power Grid
While it's probably little consolation to South Australians, now well-accustomed to routine load-shedding and Statewide blackouts, every-time wind power output collapses on a total and totally unpredictable basis, the Golden State, California is in the same boat. These Off-The-Books Government Regs Are Propping Up Wind And Solar Daily Caller Andrew Follett Off-the-books government regulations heavily … Continue reading Subsidised Wind & Solar Power Wrecking California’s Power Grid
Pointless Wind Farm Carnage: British Study Confirms Wholesale Bat Slaughter
Bats matter to our environment as they assist with pollination, pest control and seed dispersion. In the UK it is an offence to deliberately (or recklessly in Scotland) disturb a bat in a way that would (significantly in Scotland) affect its ability to survive, breed or rear young …. or significantly affect the local distribution or abundance of the species. Dead … Continue reading Pointless Wind Farm Carnage: British Study Confirms Wholesale Bat Slaughter
Can Ontario Escape its Self-Inflicted Wind Power Disaster?

Needless Human Suffering the Price of Wind Industry Corruption
*** For far too many acoustic engineers ethics runs a poor second to pocketing fat piles of easy cash from the wind industry for knocking out noise reports that (always) show 'compliance' with the noise conditions of planning consents - even if that requires fabricating data - as occurred at the Waubra and Cape Bridgewater … Continue reading Needless Human Suffering the Price of Wind Industry Corruption
Wind Power Company Sues To Keep Bird Kill Data Under Wraps
In the battle for hearts and minds, the one issue that seems to annoy the wind industry like a burr under a frisky pony's saddle blanket is the wholesale slaughter of millions of birds and bats.
