Wind Industry Always Knew That Wind Turbine Noise Exposure Causes Adverse Health Effects

The wind industry has worked very hard to cover up sleep deprivation and other adverse health effects caused by turbine-generated low-frequency noise and infrasound. It started with the woefully inadequate, indeed, utterly irrelevant noise standards written by the wind industry; and the institutional corruption that: a) allowed those standards to become the “benchmarks” in the first … Continue reading Wind Industry Always Knew That Wind Turbine Noise Exposure Causes Adverse Health Effects

Unnecessary Night-time Nuisance: Why Wind Turbine Noise Is So Much More Annoying After Dark

Delivering a thumping, grinding, mechanical cacophony, industrial wind turbines drive neighbours nuts. But, as a recent study from Flinders University in South Australia has found, there’s a reason why wind turbine noise is so much worse after dark. The pulsing, thumping nature of wind turbine noise - which relates to blades passing the tower - … Continue reading Unnecessary Night-time Nuisance: Why Wind Turbine Noise Is So Much More Annoying After Dark

Industrial Noise Overload: What Makes Wind Turbine Noise So Soul Destroying

For those unfortunates forced to live with incessant turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound, the cause of their inability to sleep is no mystery. For a taste of what life with these things is really like, why not start with Clive and Trina Gare (South Australian farmers paid $200,000 per year to host 19 2MW … Continue reading Industrial Noise Overload: What Makes Wind Turbine Noise So Soul Destroying
