Callously wrecking rural communities, it’s no wonder that big wind is struggling in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. While a few utterly deluded Democrats are keen to take Americans down the rabbit hole, with claims that an all wind and sun powered future is just a heartbeat away (for … Continue reading America Unleashed: Growing Rural Anger Sees More US States Ban New Wind Power Projects

Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar Puts Power Out of Reach for America’s Working Poor
There will always be poverty, but rocketing power prices caused by subsidised wind and solar mean real punishment for the working poor. Yes, the poor will always be with us. And governments are meant to protect not punish them. However, that’s precisely the result of policies that favour meaningless power sources at the expense of … Continue reading Cost of Subsidised Wind & Solar Puts Power Out of Reach for America’s Working Poor
Fact Factory: Smashing Big Wind Starts & Ends With Data & Detail
What the wind industry hates most are facts; facts about rocketing power prices, massive subsidies, chaotic intermittency, incessant noise and consequent harm to neighbour's health, the destruction of birds and bats, the destruction of underground water supplies, turbines spontaneously combusting, disintegrating or throwing their blades to the four winds. We could go on. On this … Continue reading Fact Factory: Smashing Big Wind Starts & Ends With Data & Detail
Deadly Cool: Wind Turbine Throws Ice Chunks Into US College
Throwing 10 tonne blades hundreds of metres, and chunks thereof, for kilometres isn’t the limit of the wholly unnecessary risk created by giant wind turbines. No, in cooler climes, neighbours are trained in the art of dodging lethal flying chunks of ice, too. To the uninitiated, ‘ice throw’ (another wind industry euphemism) might sound … Continue reading Deadly Cool: Wind Turbine Throws Ice Chunks Into US College

Myths, half-truths and downright lies are the stock in trade of the subsidy-soaked wind industry: to obtain its ‘social licence’, it’s needed plenty of useful idiots in the press. Gullible so-called ‘journalists’ ready, willing and able to parrot all the usual fantasies, such as: wind power is ‘free’ and getting cheaper all the time; that … Continue reading Press-Ganged: How the Wind Industry Hijacked the Media to Peddle its Fake News
America’s Wind Industry Squeals as Republicans Slash Massive Wind Power Subsidies
The wind industry is a lot like Peter Pan – the perpetual infant, hard-wired to fight, kick and scream to avoid the stark reality of adulthood. How often have we heard the yarn about wind power needing those life-giving subsidies (filched in their hundreds of $billions from taxpayers and power consumers) to continue for just … Continue reading America’s Wind Industry Squeals as Republicans Slash Massive Wind Power Subsidies
Wind Power Propaganda Unplugged: How Media Helped Sell the Greatest Fraud of All Time
The first recruit in war is God and the first casualty is the truth. For 20 years, the wind industry has been slaughtering the truth across the globe in an unrelenting propaganda war. George Orwell, British novelist and keen political observer, understood the power of words and the power that comes from manipulating them. Orwell … Continue reading Wind Power Propaganda Unplugged: How Media Helped Sell the Greatest Fraud of All Time
Astroturfing ‘Greens’ Destroy Viable Power Sytems & Pocket Obscene ‘Profits’ at Taxpayers’ Expense
*** Americans have got a long way to go to catch up with South Australians. While there is a well-organised band of eco-fascists pushing America towards a wind powered future, the penetration of wind power in the US is minuscule by comparison with Australia’s so-called “wind powered capital”. South Australians, blessed with the highest power … Continue reading Astroturfing ‘Greens’ Destroy Viable Power Sytems & Pocket Obscene ‘Profits’ at Taxpayers’ Expense
