facts, analysis, exposure of wind energy's real impacts
Noteworthy
Wind energy has again been shown up for what it is, an expensive way of saving a derisory amount of CO2. It is, frankly, a disgrace, that the wind turbine farce continues in the name of saving the planet. The [UK]Government should intervene immediately and stop these projects - they are a waste of our resources.
