How true is this? From the AWEA......... “Today wind generates enough electricity to power 20 million homes”

 

Today wind generates enough electricity to power 20 million homes”………….  First you have to accept the wind industry's embellished wind energy numbers, which are not accurate especially since energy flowing projects is not accounted for.  But if one does happen to accept these figures, then this statement is slightly true because these are primarily light bulb numbers.  The real truth is most of the energy being consumed or used to power a home in the US, is from…

Has annual wind turbine mortality to birds and bats reached 45 million? Yes, according to one study.

It is my understanding that legal actions against the wind industry from several different parties may take place in the near future. To help with these actions I am going to give my expert opinion in a series of posts pertaining to the wind industry’s non-scientific and fraudulent mortality data. These posts may include my personal notes.          

The highest annual estimated bird mortality from wind turbines in the US is claimed to be no more than 573,000. After reading through…

Very important corrections for new eagle killing rules - Annual bald eagle bag limits are now 7,518

Even though this rule was primarily designed for the unencumbered expansion of wind energy into the wetland habitats inhabited by bald eagles, this new rule  does include all industrial eagle take.  

Population estimates used for eagle take were created with embellished population figures. Proof of this was submitted in my 7.1.2016 comments to the Interior department.  However my eagle take figures of 6200 are not correct. The final revisions had several changes from…

Wind Energy – A runaway failure for nearly 4 decades Part 3 of 3

An even faster growing energy gap

The green energy fantasy of using wind turbines to power the future truly is a fantasy and this delusion becomes even more impossible when considering all of society’s other energy sectors.

When looking at the published California Energy Commission (CEC) information below, these are the total energy consumption figures for CA that include electricity, fuel coal and natural gas. It tells the public very little but with some added…

Wind Energy – A runaway failure for nearly 4 decades Part 2 of 3

Figuring out the true value of wind energy is really quite easy if the real numbers were not deliberately being hidden.  But all this has hidden, just like the thousands of eagle carcasses being found under wind turbines each year has been hidden.  Unfortunately, facts like these are hidden because people and corporations with terrible character want your money. …

Wind Energy – A runaway failure for nearly 4 decades

If you are one of the millions across America, that that believes wind energy will create a better world, you need to read the facts presented here.   This information has been hidden by the media, utility companies, your government and by most of all, a terribly destructive industry seeking profits.   

California’s wind turbines may have started a green revolution here in America. But as readers will learn here, wind…

Wind Energy is a loser and your energy providers all know it

Corporate interests are robbing taxpayers and allowing wind turbines to kill as many as 4,200 bald eagles and 2,000 golden eagles annually "without prosecution," is a perfect example of our completely corrupted government. Wind energy is a loser except for providing profits and all energy providers know this is a 100 % true statement.  The numbers for this pie chart will be released soon.…

Green is much more than a color

 As seen by the recent rigged decision to allow thousands of eagles to be killed annually by the wind industry, green is much more than a color.                                                                                                                  Destroying ecosystems with wind energy developments and slaughtering off rare and endangered species is…

What lies ahead??????????

I voted for Donald Trump. I believe Donald Trump was elected President primarily because the people of America are sick of corruption. Hillary lost because she, along with the media, ran on a platform of lies.
Over the last 8 years the public has had to live with a president that always thought he was the smartest guy in the room and could schmooze his way through anything. But what…

In a Perfect World

The Wind industry fraud on America is a far bigger mess than the Hillary emails or the disgusting Clinton foundation.  Their slimy game plan is the same as the wind industry's, to keep lying and keep killing the messenger so they can continue to rob taxpayers.

Hillary and Bill have played a great part in this fraud on America. That's why nailing Hillary…

When corruption rules .............Research is routinely rigged

When corruption rules .............Research is routinely rigged.

The annual estimated bird mortality from wind turbines in the US is claimed to be no more than 573,000. However I want to point out that this number used by the bird conservation groups, the media and Government agencies, was created from a culmination of fake industry studies using a variety of highly deceptive research methodology tricks.

Then using all this false data from the industry’s fake studies, a new…

Lake Erie's hidden future - Cleveland and eventually Detroit will be trashed

The Icebreaker project is the first of what will end up being several hundred turbines placed on lake Erie.   Hundreds of massive wind turbines that will kill tens of thousands of birds annually are being planned for Lake Erie. Property values will also be greatly impacted.  

I can not emphasize this enough, the MO of this industry is to lie, lie again, pay others to lie for you and to keep on lying until the profits stop. It has been that way since 1985 when the results of first and…

When corruption rules the public is fed lies

When corruption rules the public is fed lies. One of these lies is that the Altamont Pass area has largest density of breeding Golden Eagles in the world. This myth was made up from bogus wind industry research.

Altamont is important because this wind energy site has been slaughtering golden eagles for decades. In 2015 the USGS published a report that estimated the eagle population to be approximately 280 pairs in a 2000 square mile region around Altamont. They came to this conclusion…

North America’s first proposed offshore wind project

Back in 1992, before Bill Clinton’s slimy administration came along,  a Danish consortium (consisting primarily of Vestas-Danish Wind Technology proposed an offshore wind turbine project consisting of 20-30 turbines in the breakwater at the Cabrillo Beach fishing pier in San Pedro CA .

 

The only selling point for the project was that promoters were falsely claiming this project would save 70,000 barrels of oil and eliminate…

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT

******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********

(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/
