NET ZERO – A 2 MW wind turbine is made up of:
▪️260 tons of steel requiring
▪️300 tons of iron ore
▪️170 tons of coking coal
▪️ rare earths including Praseodymium (Pr), Neodymium (Nd), Terbium (Tb), and Dysprosium (Dy)
▪️fibre glass
▪️resin
▪️plastic
▪️aluminium
…. all mined, and produced by hydrocarbons and all subsidised by you.
Eye-opening video highlights the enormous quantity of energy and resources (and thus CO2 emissions) required to build a single wind turbine.

Imagine believing these monstrosities are an efficient use of valuable resources, let alone that they're "saving the planet". 😂 pic.twitter.com/nyixVdgq05
I have never seen a wind turbine produce the amount of electricity projected.

They are a blight on the landscape that kills thousands of birds each day. They have a 30 year exemption from the Endangered Species Act.
