A Word from the Wind Energy People

It Takes a 100 Foot Trailer to Haul the Fan Blades

 

 

But, those wind turbine towers, power over 15 million homes in the USA.

A good contact in Texas let me borrow this animation, to share with everyone.

Now You Can Learn All About How They Work

 

 

It wouldn't be a good idea, to start complaining about these things killing birds.

That's because, I have already addressed that problem and, no sense in arguing with me. 

You might as well, go grab your guns and, try discussing gun control with me.

Truth is, between wind, solar and the power available in the ocean, we could save lots of money.

And, tell those nuclear and oil people, where to stick the stuff !  Amen.

A Year Later the Silence About Fukushima, Japan is Deafening



No.  The photo above is not the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.

It's a coal burner in Kin Cho Kin Okinawa, Japan.

We're over 1,000 miles away from that nuclear disaster and today is the one year anniversary.


The silence is deafening.

Not just in Japan.  The silence around the globe is deafening, to me.

The silence about nuclear power.  It's unbelievable.

Now, I've never been an activist.  And, don't think I have the time to become a good one, either.

The Fukushima incident convinced me.  Nuclear power is no good.

Greedy power companies and governments want to keep building them.

But, nobody wants one in their backyard.

No one wants the waste associated with them, either. Unless, they want to kill you.

The stuff has a shelf life (for killing) that must be a month of eternities long.

The people who create it aren't all that sure about how long they can safely contain it.

You might be surprised if you knew where the stuff goes.  So, I won't tell you.

Shortly after last year's disaster I became interested in SOLAR POWER.

And, I'm glad we never had any nuclear power plants on our islands.


The silence in memory of all those who lost lives and land in last year's disaster, I'll observe.


Is there any nuclear material nearby you ?
