Settling Up: Irish Wind Farm Operator Pays Three Children €225,000 Compensation For Suffering Caused by Turbine Noise

Wind developers face liability in the millions for the nuisance caused by unrelenting, turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound. Litigation is where the rubber hits the road: myths get replaced with facts; evidence overtakes spin and propaganda. Court rooms (and where they determine the facts, juries) strike fear into the (ordinarily icy) hearts of those … Continue reading Settling Up: Irish Wind Farm Operator Pays Three Children €225,000 Compensation For Suffering Caused by Turbine Noise

Government’s Wind Industry Protection Racket: Wind Farm Noise ‘Rules’ A Sick Joke

Around the world, pliant governments allowed the wind industry to create utterly meaningless wind turbine noise ‘rules’ that allow wind power outfits to get away with murder. Giant industrial wind turbines deliver a merciless, thumping, grinding cacophony of daily torment to families forced to live next to them. And if you think pocketing cash in … Continue reading Government’s Wind Industry Protection Racket: Wind Farm Noise ‘Rules’ A Sick Joke

Research Breakthrough: Why Pulsing, Thumping Wind Turbine Noise Is So Annoying

  Explaining wind turbine noise to someone who’s never lived through it, is like explaining a migraine to someone who’s never had a headache. Measuring, quantifying and objectively describing it is no picnic, either. While the wind industry’s pet acoustic consultants stick to irrelevant measures such as the dB(A) weighting (that removes and therefore fails … Continue reading Research Breakthrough: Why Pulsing, Thumping Wind Turbine Noise Is So Annoying

‘Green’ Energy Guinea Pigs: Why Wind Turbine Noise Victims Suffer Sleep Deprivation & Worse

The German government got caught destroying data showing residents exposed to dangerous levels of wind turbine infrasound. In the USA, wind farm neighbours are exposed to precisely the same soul-destroying cacophony; a mix of thumping, pulsing (‘amplitude modulated’) low-frequency noise and infrasound. Evidence proving the unnecessary harm done to wind farm neighbours by wind turbine … Continue reading ‘Green’ Energy Guinea Pigs: Why Wind Turbine Noise Victims Suffer Sleep Deprivation & Worse

Heartless: Wind Industry Covers Up Health Effects Caused by Low-Frequency Turbine Noise

A couple of years back, STT produced a timeline which highlighted how the wind industry and its pet acoustic consultants managed to set up ‘rules’ which have no relevance to the noise impacts experienced by wind farm neighbours and under which wind power outfits could ride roughshod over rural communities with complete impunity. That post … Continue reading Heartless: Wind Industry Covers Up Health Effects Caused by Low-Frequency Turbine Noise

‘Green’ Hypocrites Want Industrial Wind Turbines in YOUR Backyard, But Never in Theirs

The green is always ready to spear hundreds of giant 240m (787ft) industrial wind turbines - into your backyard, but goes nuts if the ‘favour’ might be returned. Destroying your patch of paradise is a sacrifice that he is always willing to make. When former Greens leader, Dr Bob Brown started railing about the prospect … Continue reading ‘Green’ Hypocrites Want Industrial Wind Turbines in YOUR Backyard, But Never in Theirs

Sick Again: Wind Turbine Infrasound Delivers Daily Torment to Wind Farm Neighbours

The wind industry doesn’t simply cause grid and power market chaos, it’s a guaranteed community wrecker, too. 300 tonne monsters set on 100 metre towers with 50-60 m blades (the outer tips of which are travelling at over 350 Kph) deliver a thumping, pulsing cacophony of low-frequency noise and infrasound, that drives neighbours nuts or … Continue reading Sick Again: Wind Turbine Infrasound Delivers Daily Torment to Wind Farm Neighbours

Menace to Society: Costly, Chaotic Wind Power Delivers Nothing But Community Division & Bird & Bat Carnage

Anyone looking for reasons to hate wind power, is spoiled for choice. Heavily subsidised, chaotically intermittent and an environmental nightmare, there’s a veritable smorgasbord of arguments against returning to the Dark Ages. A time when daily life was dictated by the seasons and the weather. The reason that human beings developed, harnessed and perfected thermal … Continue reading Menace to Society: Costly, Chaotic Wind Power Delivers Nothing But Community Division & Bird & Bat Carnage

Noise Matters: Why Wind Turbine Noise Drives Wind Farm Neighbours Nuts

Life next to industrial wind turbines is a living hell for far too many rural residents. Practically incessant turbine-generated low-frequency noise and infra-sound drives neighbours nuts, preventing them from sleeping in – and otherwise enjoying the comforts of – their very own homes. An Australian Court found long-term exposure to wind turbine noise to be … Continue reading Noise Matters: Why Wind Turbine Noise Drives Wind Farm Neighbours Nuts

Falmouth Locals Celebrate Brilliant Victory: Noisy Wind Turbines Finally Silenced & Banished Forever

  Beating the wind industry takes tenacity, patience and perseverance. In Falmouth, Massachusetts that combination helped locals regain their town after two Vestas V82s were speared within a few hundred metres of homes set in, once perfectly peaceful, idyllic rural countryside. Practically incessant turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound literally drove neighbours nuts, for years. … Continue reading Falmouth Locals Celebrate Brilliant Victory: Noisy Wind Turbines Finally Silenced & Banished Forever
