Ed Miliband’s Wind Farms Could Cripple UK ‘Iron Dome’ Anti-Missile Systems and Leave Britain a “Sitting Duck”
Britain is a “sitting duck” for drone attacks, senior defence sources say, because Ed Miliband’s wind farms interfere with radar used by defensive domes.
A Windy Day!
It does not take a genius to work out that when Ed Miliband succeeds in tripling wind power capacity, there will be far too much wind power for the grid…
House hearing on bird killing ignores wind
So while I learned a lot about black vultures and double-crested cormorants, I heard nothing about much-needed legislation to protect birds from being slaughtered by wind turbines. That should be…
Waste from “clean energy” piles up across the U.S.
“Illegal disposal of wind hurts our land and will never be permitted under my watch,” AG Paxton said in a statement. “Just because the radical left calls something a ‘green…
Texas Windpower: Will Negative Pricing Blow Out the Lights? (PTC vs. reliable new capacity)
The disruption of the Texas electrical market by negative wind prices is only going to get worse as more renewable-specific transmission lines are built, and as the frequency of negative…
“What is the … Plan for Gas?”: Even the Guardian has Slammed Mad Miliband’s Latest Green Energy Brainstorm
“… the scariest report out of the energy department … an “emerging risk” of running out of gas supplies by 2030 …”
Save LBI Says Offshore Wind Projects Grossly Underestimate Harm to Marine Mammals, Challenges NOAA to “Prove Us Wrong” with a Focused Monitoring Program
Save Long Beach Island, Inc. (Save LBI), a grassroots organization dedicated to sound energy policies and preserving our shore and ocean environment, has long contended that the high levels of…
The Wind Energy Paradox: “Why More Wind Turbines Don’t Always Mean More Power”
The Munich-based daily Merkur is finally reporting on something that us skeptics have been pointing out some 20 years: Wind turbines always either produce too little or too much, and are thus…
The Severe Ecological Ramifications of Offshore Windfarms in the Atlantic
They presume that a system as complex as the Atlantic continental shelf will behave according to their intentions rather than according to its physics.
How Much Asbestos Do Wind Turbines Contain?
Following discovery of asbestos lift brake pads in Chinese manufactured Aussie turbines, turbine operators are conducting a frantic audit.
Shock New Report Lays Out the Full Scale of Environmental Damage Caused by Onshore Wind Turbines
Mass slaughter of bats and raptors is already known, but this new report casts fresh light on the cascading effects on the natural world of increasing numbers of giant wind…
Giant Transport Airplane to be Developed for Wind Turbine Components
Humans might face future air travel restrictions, but wind turbines could get a free pass if inventor Mark Lundstrom has his way.
Orsted vs. Trump: An Offshore Battle Looms
What this $10 billion battle with the Trump administration means for Orsted’s Danish government owner remains to be seen.
Green Energy’s High Price: Wind Farms Are Ravaging Nature, Biodiversity
But behind this “green” lies an underestimated chain of destruction causing extensive, possibly irreversible damage to our ecosystems.
Japan’s Green Energy Failures Serve as a Warning to the US: Don’t Fall for the Climate Agenda
Japan’s offshore wind setback is more than a domestic issue. It is a global reminder of the dangers of ignoring full costs and clinging to illusions. Ambitious targets and political…
Feds deaf to eagle-kill warning
Land-based wind turbines kill golden eagles, so every turbine requires an Eagle Protection Act permit from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) to kill them.
Feds ignore their research on windmills killing eagles
It looks like FWS has never implemented, or even publicly evaluated, any of DOE’s research products. The permits are issued under the Eagle Protection Act, which clearly calls for mitigating…
Green Giants vs. Trump: Billion-Dollar Enviro Groups Fight to Save Wind Power
Wind power is not clean, not affordable, and certainly not reliable. It is, however, deadly to millions of birds, bats, and marine mammals. No more of these deadly turbines should…
