‘Wind Power Fails on Every Count’: Oxford Scientist Explains the Math
After the decision to cut down on fossil fuels was made at the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris, the "instinctive reaction" around the world was to embrace renewables, Professor Emeritus Wade Allison, who is also a researcher at CERN, said in a 2023 paper (pdf).
"Today, modern technology is
deployed to harvest these weak sources of energy. Vast 'farms' that monopolise
the natural environment are built, to the detriment of other creatures.
Developments are made regardless of the damage wrought. Hydro-electric schemes,
enormous turbines and square miles of solar panels are constructed, despite
being unreliable and ineffective; even unnecessary," Allison said in the
report, published by the Global Warming Policy Foundation.
