This is a sad story of a farmer who was subjected to… well, a lot of personal attacks and threats from other farmers and ‘powerful’ people including politicians when he decided to lease a parcel of his land to a Wind Farm. That was some time ago. The problem is, the same disinformation and misinformation is still bandied about by fossil fuel addled idiots and powerful interests for just about every new renewable project. Why aren’t we naming and shaming? Why are journalists silent, or worse still, part of the problems? Why have we not seen these ‘lobbyists’ in the Courts in class actions?

“My lived experience is the opposite to the majority of talk. And I find it unbelievable that after all this time with so many wind farms operating, there’s still the nastiness and the anti and the absolute nonsense said about wind farms.”
