Today is being celebrated as "National Wind Mill Day" in the Netherlands, but these photos show the actual modern reality, which is a far cry from the quaint wind mills that were once used to grind grain. It's hard to believe they call these things "wind parks." What a sacrilege!
During my 6 week absence from Twitter, I've been researching & writing articles to educate politicians & voters of the grave dangers of destroying natural habitats to install industrial wind turbines. This article shows how hazardous such projects can be:

"growing turbine sizes... raised fears that the sound characteristics will shift to lower frequencies (Møller and Pedersen 2011). This should be taken seriously, because sounds with prominent infrasound (1–20 Hz)... may affect human health and well-being" researchgate.net/publication…
This past year alone (2018), it was estimated that 1,000 whales or more may have perished on the shorelines of England, Scotland, Wales & Ireland, representing exceptionally high mortality events. There are currently 2,590 industrial wind turbines operating in the North Sea.
Here are three internet links to excellent articles concerning the connection of deaths of whales and dolphins to dangerous industrial wind turbine infrasound: 1) masterresource.org/offshore-… and 2) dailymail.co.uk/news/article… and 3) jasonendfield.weebly.com/hom…
Record-breaking 29 sperm whales beached on North Sea shores in 2016. Utrecht Uni researched the cause of deaths (2018). Manmade factors explored: entanglement, ship-strikes, plastic ingestion & chemical pollution. Wind turbine infrasound was never considered among possibilities.
Big Finland study is making news. Gov't health agency studied 200 victims of wind turbine infrasound: Report shows the severity of symptoms do not decrease for the first 15 km from the source. Few countries require a setback from homes of over 2 km: syte.fi/2019/01/10/pilottitu…
It was very significant to hear the DoD say that industrial wind turbines cause radar interference 150 miles away, but I only just found a 2015 research paper showing iwt infrasound traveled 90 km at night in a New Mexico study: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.… Harmful even from far away!
Considering harmful industrial wind turbine infrasound is recorded 90 km away from its source over mountainous desert land, it is well to consider how much farther noxious offshore wind turbine sounds travel over water where LF frequencies are amplified: reddit.com/r/askscience/comm…
Preview Budweiser's sick Super Bowl ad, "Wind Never Felt Better." The scene shows a dog riding on a wagon being pulled by their Clydesdales with Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind" playing as they ride through a wind energy facility: wideopencountry.com/budweise… Boycott their products!
Big congratulations to the people of Falmouth... your long nightmare is finally over! This morning, Cape Cod Wave Magazine published an excellent article on the success of a lawsuit against industrial wind turbines there due to harmful effects of LF noise: capecodwave.com/falmouth-tow…
Saddened to hear the news about beautiful Donegal, Ireland, where the #IrishRaptorStudyGroup withdrew a legal challenge, thus allowing the plans for a destructive industrial wind turbine scheme to run rampant. So much serenity & birds to lose. Advice to fight such awful things...
Along these lines, delay's your best friend when fighting destructive industrial wind turbine projects. Delay & delay! The more ways you can delay a project from happening, the less chance the wind energy corporation can explain its losses to investors. Endurance is the word!
Fighting fraudulent, highly-polluting & inefficient "green" energy of industrial wind turbine schemes & exposing their massive carbon footprint inspires one to research the real, green alternative energy sources of the future. See cutting-edge tech @ revolution-green.com/recharg…
"Green New Deal"... you won't believe how the liberal/renewable madness is being escalated to unheard of heights by the Democrats (I'm an independent BTW, so this is not a political statement just a tweet against insanity). A must read from Sen. Barrasso:
