Largest Wind Farm Built At Once In North America Now Running In Oklahoma

[Profreedomokie]

I did not even notice a link but I do agree that modern nuclear is the best bet. Especially if they keep pushing electric cars. That will be the only way to produce enough power to run them. Wind and solar will never do it. I am wondering about the new air independent hydrogen engines they are putting in modern subs. Could they be a source of clean, reliable energy?

Even if there was enough power to charge millions of EVs ,the power grid can't handle it.

“More than 8 million people died in 2018 from fossil fuel pollution, significantly higher than previous research suggested, according to new research from Harvard University, in collaboration with the University of Birmingham, the University of Leicester and University College London. Researchers estimated that exposure to particulate matter from fossil fuel emissions accounted for 18 percent of total global deaths in 2018 — a little less than 1 out of 5.

Regions with the highest concentrations of fossil fuel-related air pollution — including Eastern North America, Europe, and South-East Asia — have the highest rates of mortality, according to the study published in the journal Environmental Research.

What a bunch of eggheaded fools attempting to make themselves more important all while bilking monies from endowments and grants to perform unnecessary inaccurate research on a problem that does not exist.


In other words,

This is pure bullsh*t.

Thanks, @Slim Deal!

That must come from the same folks that figured covid deaths.

So why are you all complaining about a few dead birds? Humans dying from polluted air doesn’t seem to bother you.

There it is! I love it when you all resort to fallacies.

How Green Is Wind Power, Really? A New Report Tallies Up The Carbon Cost Of Renewables

Building and erecting wind turbines requires hundreds of tons of materials — steel, concrete, fiberglass, copper, and more exotic stuff like neodymium and dysprosium used in permanent magnets.

www.forbes.com

“Good news: amortizing the carbon cost over the decades-long lifespan of the equipment, Bernstein determined that wind power has a carbon footprint 99% less than coal-fired power plants, 98% less than natural gas, and a surprise 75% less than solar. More specifically, they figure that wind turbines average just 11 grams of CO2 emission per kilowatthour of electricity generated. That compares with 44 g/kwh for solar, 450 g for natural gas, and a whopping 1,000 g for coal.

But beating them all is the original large-scale zero-carbon power source, nuclear power, at 9 g/kwh.

Thanks to technology, these stats aren’t static. Offshore wind turbines are becoming enormous, with General Electric’s GE -2.9% Haliade X featuring blades 360 feet long and generating 14 megawatts. The carbon footprint of such monsters could get as low as 6 g/kwh. “

Wind energy is not green.

Electric Vehicles are not green.

If you know anything about either or both; these facts cannot be disputed.

100% this.

You are being manipulated.

wind turbines don't last very long

The wind farms seem to be working, very well. I am getting tired of those fans blowing. Shut them off
