The wind industry is relentlessly ploughing up Irish fields and peat bogs, leaving a filthy wake of destruction in its path. The Irish government (read 'taxpayer') was whacked with a €5 million fine when a mudslide caused by one wind power outfit's construction operations unleashed a filthy torrent into a nearby river, wiping out tens … Continue reading New Bog Standard: Irish Wind Industry Turning Emerald Isle Into Filthy Quagmire

Irish Government Slammed with €5m Fine Over Wind Farm’s Environmental Disaster
Getting into bed with wind developers is never going to end well. For its troubles, the Irish government has just been whacked with a €5m fine for failing to enforce its own environmental standards at a wind farm near Derrybrien, County Galway. During construction, the developer managed to wipeout half a mountain, sending a sea … Continue reading Irish Government Slammed with €5m Fine Over Wind Farm’s Environmental Disaster
Ontario’s Water Wars: Wind Turbine Construction Turns Underground Water to Toxic Sludge
Ontario’s farmers keep complaining about the toxic sludge coming out of their wells, while the wind power outfits that have obviously caused the damage, keep lying about it. Pile-driving and the excavations required for 400m³ of steel reinforced concrete for the hundreds of turbine bases across Chatham-Kent are the only new and intervening factor capable … Continue reading Ontario’s Water Wars: Wind Turbine Construction Turns Underground Water to Toxic Sludge
Ontario: Water, Water Everywhere – But Thanks to Wind Turbines – Not A Drop to Drink
Wind farm neighbours are forced to endure all manner of wholly unnecessary suffering. Incessant turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound drives them nuts at nighttime or, in plenty of cases, out of their homes, altogether. In Ontario, around the shores of the Great Lakes, the latest outrage involves wind power outfits destroying local underground … Continue reading Ontario: Water, Water Everywhere – But Thanks to Wind Turbines – Not A Drop to Drink
Scots Win Court Battle to Stop Wind Farm Proposal Poisoning Water Supply
Destroying underground water supplies is just another “wonderful” feature of eco-friendly wind power. The largest of these things require a steel reinforced concrete base of around 400-500 m³. For 3MW turbines the bottom of the base itself – depending on the soil profile and rock strata – will sit between 5m and 10 m below … Continue reading Scots Win Court Battle to Stop Wind Farm Proposal Poisoning Water Supply
Wind Turbine Generated Vibrations Wrecking Ontario’s Groundwater Supply
In the 'what's not to like about wind power?' category, here's a story from Ontario: the Canadian province that its loony-green-left Government has turned into a pin-cushion, sporting thousands of these things that have destroyed entire rural communites. Now, it's their precious underground water supplies that are being destroyed by wind turbine generated vibrations. Ontario … Continue reading Wind Turbine Generated Vibrations Wrecking Ontario’s Groundwater Supply
Since giant fans went up – only the bravest drink from my well
**** In our post “The Breakout” we talked about just how sick and tired we all are of crippling wind power driven electricity prices, how those unfortunates stuck with giant fans are sick and constantly tired as a result of incessant and debilitating low-frequency turbine noise - and how the world is growing tired of … Continue reading Since giant fans went up – only the bravest drink from my well
