The US government has granted America’s offshore wind industry a sweeping licence to destroy thousands of whales, dolphins, porpoises, seals and more - while permanently trashing critical marine environments in the process. The damage done starts with seismic surveys carried out pre-construction and continues as hundreds of 240m high turbines are punched into the seabed … Continue reading US Government Grants Wind Industry Licence to Kill Thousands of Whales, Dolphins, Porpoises & Seals

Offshore Wind Industry Gets Licence To Kill Right, Sperm & Humpback Whales With Impunity
Hundreds of whales are being killed by the offshore wind industry, and it’s been given a license to do so, with complete impunity. Let’s call it a ‘green light’ for industrial murder. Offshore outfits along the US Atlantic coast have clocked up something like 178 whale fatalities since construction began and their turbines first started … Continue reading Offshore Wind Industry Gets Licence To Kill Right, Sperm & Humpback Whales With Impunity
Plain Stupid: The Only Thing Dumber Than Wind Power Is Offshore Wind Power
Wind power comes with a staggering price tag, taking these things out to sea sends those costs into orbit: intermittent offshore wind power is six times the cost of gas-fired power that's always available on demand. Placing giant industrial wind turbines miles offshore is costly enough, but the rising costs of attempting to maintain them … Continue reading Plain Stupid: The Only Thing Dumber Than Wind Power Is Offshore Wind Power
No Fluke: Locals Fight Offshore Wind Power Project That Threatens Mass Whale Wipeout
If the wind industry gets its way, it’s curtains for the already endangered Atlantic Right Whale. Taking giant industrial wind turbines offshore threatens whales of all shapes and sizes, including the Atlantic Right Whale. Whales already have plenty of offshore industrial activity to contend with. However, where oil and gas extraction, international shipping, and commercial … Continue reading No Fluke: Locals Fight Offshore Wind Power Project That Threatens Mass Whale Wipeout
Endangered Atlantic Right Whales Next Victims of Offshore Wind Power Push
The endangered Atlantic Right Whale appears to be the wind industry’s next victim; it already has plenty of offshore industrial activity to contend with. But oil and gas extraction, international shipping, and commercial fishing have obvious embodied economic benefits. Whereas, the only economic benefit derived from wind power is the subsidies it attracts. No subsidies. … Continue reading Endangered Atlantic Right Whales Next Victims of Offshore Wind Power Push
Not Right: Offshore Wind Turbines Threaten Endangered Atlantic Right Whales
The environmental destruction wreaked by offshore wind power is one almighty whale of a problem. While all power generation systems take a toll on the environment, it’s only the wind industry that claims moral superiority over all others. That tenuous claim – which rests on the ‘we’re saving the planet’ mantra chanted by the wind … Continue reading Not Right: Offshore Wind Turbines Threaten Endangered Atlantic Right Whales
On The Beach: Whales Deafened By Offshore Wind Turbine Noise Die Stranded Onshore
The wind industry has been slaughtering millions of birds, bats and insects for years; and offshore it’s been killing off whales and dolphins, as well. All power generation systems takes a toll on the environment, but it's only the wind industry that claims moral superiority over all others. That tenuous claim - which rests on … Continue reading On The Beach: Whales Deafened By Offshore Wind Turbine Noise Die Stranded Onshore
How ‘Green’ is Wind Power: Offshore Wind Farms Killing Whales
*** Energy generation systems of all descriptions take their toll, but only one of them claims moral superiority over all others. That increasingly tenuous claim rests on the 'we're saving the planet' mantra - chanted by the wind cult around the Globe. Not for the first time, and not for the last time, wind turbine noise … Continue reading How ‘Green’ is Wind Power: Offshore Wind Farms Killing Whales
Wind Turbine Noise Terrorising Whales
Once upon a time, 'Save the Whales' was a mantra swiped onto T-Shirts and bumper stickers by environmentalists to exhibit their moral righteousness. Now, as signed up members of the wind-cult, the hemp-shirt and nose ring squad have a tiny hypocritical dilemma on their hands. The wholesale slaughter of birds and bats has been quickly … Continue reading Wind Turbine Noise Terrorising Whales
