Senseless Seagull Slaughter: Offshore Wind Industry Wiping Out Britain’s Seabirds

June 10, 2022 by stopthesethings 5 Comments

Wherever the wind industry plies it subsidy-soaked trade, there’s a wave of avian carnage, and offshore is no exception. While Greta & Co fret about global incineration and mass extinctions, the wind industry is doing a very fine job of extinguishing millions of birds and bats, every year. Indeed, entire species are under threat, including […]

Filthy ‘Green’ Future: The Dark & Toxic Side of Wind & Solar Power

June 9, 2020 by stopthesethings 8 Comments

There’s nothing ‘clean’ or ‘green’ about wind and solar power and anyone telling you otherwise is either an idiot, or they’re in on it. The faux environmentalist is easy to spot: he loves industrial wind power and couldn’t care less about the environmental destruction it causes. Faced with the rampant slaughter of birds and […]

Blown Away: Counting the Colossal Cost of Cleaning Up ‘Clean’ Energy’s Monstrous Mess

November 29, 2019 by stopthesethings 5 Comments

Giant industrial wind turbines have an economic lifespan around 15 years, after which the chances are that they’ll be left to rust in some idiot’s back paddock. Decommissioning these things properly at a sizeable wind farm would run into the hundreds of millions. Then there’s the toxic waste. Already, thousands of 45-70m blades are being […]

‘Green’ Turns Brown: Australia’s Head Climate Warrior Slams Wind Turbine Eagle Slaughter

July 23, 2019 by stopthesethings 9 Comments

Why only yesterday, Bob Brown was railing against coal, now he’s got it in for the wind, too. Well, at least when it comes to wind turbines slicing and dicing Eagles in his patch of paradise, Tasmania. Dr Bob’s recent epiphany concerning the ability of 60 m blades with their tips travelling at over 350 […]

Callous Carnage: Wind Industry Slicing & Dicing Threatened Bird & Bat Species With Impunity

June 14, 2019 by stopthesethings 6 Comments

The latest meme amongst climate alarmists is that the rate of species extinction is running rampantly out-of-control. So dire are the warnings that, if they materialise, we’ll be lucky if we get to spot any kind of critter crawling the earth, in a decade or two. However, there wouldn’t be much sport in criticising hysterical […]

‘Green’ Killing Fields: Wind Turbines Responsible for Massive & Unnecessary Bird Slaughter

October 26, 2018 by stopthesethings 5 Comments

Renewable energy zealots didn’t invent hypocrisy, but they seem quite comfortable wearing it, like their very own badge of honour. If wind power was even close to being a meaningful power generation source, you might, just might justify the wave of environmental and societal destruction that comes with it. Abandoned centuries ago for pretty […]

German Animal Lovers Boycott Wind Power: Vegans Incensed by Bloody Bird & Bat Slaughter

September 21, 2018 by stopthesethings 7 Comments

German vegans have mounted a boycott against wind power, incensed by the pointless and bloody slaughter of millions of birds and bats. Irony comes in many sizes and shapes, but the idea of one group of moralising zealots taking on another group of moralising zealots, is simply delicious (so to speak). The concept of carnivorous […]

‘Green’ Vandalism: The Mounting Toll of Wind Industry’s Wave of Ecological Destruction

July 27, 2018 by stopthesethings 6 Comments

In 2018, it’s easier to find a deluded wind turbine hugger, than an old-fashioned tree hugger. Michael Shellenberger is regarded as one of America’s leading environmental advocates, but his avowed hatred of subsidised, intermittent and unreliable wind and solar puts him at odds with his contemporaries. To the extent that carbon dioxide gas concerns him, […]

‘Green’ Energy Carnage: Vultures Join Eagles in Wind Industry’s Growing Carcass Count

May 25, 2018 by stopthesethings 1 Comment

In the battle for hearts and minds, the one issue that seems to annoy the wind industry like a burr under a frisky pony’s saddle blanket is the wholesale slaughter of millions of birds and bats. It’s an inconvenient truth to be sure. But, as with everything that the wind industry does, if you can’t […]

Wind Power: Unfolding Environmental Disaster – Entire Ecosystems Collapsing

November 9, 2017 by stopthesethings 11 Comments

As STT followers are well-aware, this site doesn’t mince its words: wind power is the greatest economic and environmental fraud in human history. Pull the subsidies, and this so-called ‘industry’ would disappear in a heartbeat. For the best part of 20 years, the wind cult has attempted to justify the hundreds of $billions squandered on […]
