War On Wind

Sorry I haven’t had time to post more regularly, it is just that i have been busy.

I have heard that some people think wind can replace coal. This is not true. The wind mills themselves depend on coal. Why? If wind mills are made from steal, and steal is made from iron and coal, then how are you going to replace coal? And think of all the power the factories use. And when you have to transport the turbines, then you are going to burn a lot of oil to move it half way around the word, because most turbines are made in Asia. And I have said it before, wind power fluctuates and often produces no energy. Look at 29/06/2009 (June 29) on the EirGrid website. If you have read my previous post, you will already know that wind just puts other power plants. Wind wastes a lot of resources. They always need backup, so somewhere you are going to see a power plant burning fuel but not generating power. So you are just wasting that fuel. The 500+ feet tall wind turbines have a huge amount of steal, which, again, needs a lot of energy, iron, and coal.
