“Clean” energy is dirtier than imagined
By Donn Dears |February 6th, 2022
The effect of wind power on birds and bats is already well-publicized but is being swept under the rug.
This article will explain why using wind and PV solar for generating electricity will cause greater harm to the environment than will using nuclear, natural gas combined cycle (NGCC), or coal-fired power plants.
The following chart, published by EnrgyPostEU, compares critical materials used by six different methods for generating electricity.
However, this chart is woefully misleading because it seriously understates the amount of critical materials used by wind and PV solar compared with nuclear, coal or natural gas combined cycle power plants.
