Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Wonder why Bryce forgot to mention that in most places where large wind projects are built, the previous agriculture or ranching goes on unabated. Except in cases where it's already dry desert. There are even instances where the ranch or farm was dying, and is now saved by the increase in revenue.

Steel? Straw dog. He forgot to mention pipelines and ships and LNG plants and terminals, and oh yeah, all electricity production uses the same power lines.

Infrasound? that's the inaudible sucking sound of main stream media shilling with industry propaganda, previously known as lying.

Bah.

Wonder why Bryce neglected to mention that the energy cost of building a windpark is returned in 7-9 months, followed only by long term O&M. The fuel is free, and needs no steel or military protection. While the gas plant might need some form of continual fuel, perhaps even gas.

But then again, these op-eds from the fossil industry (actually, dead plants) are not meant to be factual. Rather they're the thrashing of a dying dinosaur fighting for its last breaths. by lying.
