The wind industry’s insatiable demand for the Planet’s (purportedly) dwindling resources has no apparent limit. Inside every giant industrial wind turbine, there’s a bevy of rare minerals which are fast becoming rarer. Then there are more mundane minerals like iron ore (used to make steel) and copper, critical to their generators, internal cabling and wine, … Continue reading Dig This: Miners Can’t Keep Up With Wind Industry’s Insatiable Mineral Demands

Environment Wreckers: Wind & Solar Chewing Up World’s Resources At Astonishing Rate
Diffuse, intermittent and unreliable wind and solar are utterly pointless as power sources – because they can’t deliver power as and when we need it. However, as a source of insatiable demand for the Planet’s (purportedly) dwindling resources they blitz the field. At the heart of every Electric Vehicle, solar panel and wind turbine there’s … Continue reading Environment Wreckers: Wind & Solar Chewing Up World’s Resources At Astonishing Rate
Dirty Truth About ‘Clean’ Technologies: Or The True Cost of Climate Virtue Signalling
If ‘green’ means squandering the world’s resources, then wind and solar fit the bill, but if it’s about ‘saving the planet’, then they’re an almighty fraud. Having operated in this space since December 2012, when it comes to wind and solar industry spin and propaganda, STT has seen it all and heard it all. Wind … Continue reading Dirty Truth About ‘Clean’ Technologies: Or The True Cost of Climate Virtue Signalling
Destination Destruction: Wind and Solar ‘Transition’ Devouring Planet’s Dwindling Resources
Miners love wind and solar - demand for iron ore and coal has never looked rosier, and at the heart of every Electric Vehicle, solar panel and wind turbine there’ a bevy of rare minerals which are fast becoming rarer, thanks to our ‘inevitable transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future and the … Continue reading Destination Destruction: Wind and Solar ‘Transition’ Devouring Planet’s Dwindling Resources
Cost-Effective ‘Renewable’ Energy Is Like Unobtanium: A Fictional Construct
Wind power sits comfortably alongside Alchemy and perpetual motion machines: ideas that were both superficially attractive and utterly impossible. No country has ever powered itself entirely with wind power, and no country ever will. Putting aside their unreliability and chaotic intermittency, the amount of energy and resources that go into building a single wind turbine … Continue reading Cost-Effective ‘Renewable’ Energy Is Like Unobtanium: A Fictional Construct
Wind is ‘Free’: It’s Wind Power That Has Cost Us $BILLIONS
The wind cult keeps telling us that the wind is 'free' and, limited to that, there could be no quibble. However, what their tortured meaning extends to is the claim that electricity generated by allowing these things to caress the breeze is also free; or if not literally 'free', so cheap as to be truly … Continue reading Wind is ‘Free’: It’s Wind Power That Has Cost Us $BILLIONS
