Can anyone of you that politicize and push climate change respond to this?

Well the part about the carbon footprint is untrue….

The carbon footprint of manufacturing and operating a wind turbine can be broken down into several components: the production of materials, construction, installation, operation, maintenance, and decommissioning. Here’s a general overview:

### Manufacturing:
1. Materials: Wind turbines are primarily made from steel, concrete, and fiberglass (for the blades). The production of these materials has its own carbon footprint. For example, steel production is energy-intensive and can produce significant CO2 emissions.
2. Energy Consumption: The manufacturing process itself requires energy, which can contribute to the overall carbon footprint depending on how that energy is sourced.

### Construction and Installation:
- The construction of wind farms involves transportation and heavy machinery, which can also contribute to carbon emissions. However, this phase is relatively short compared to the operational phase.

### Operation:
- Wind turbines generate energy without emitting CO2 during operation. However, there are some emissions associated with maintenance activities, which are generally minimal.

### Maintenance:
- Regular maintenance may involve transportation and the use of materials, but it typically results in very low emissions compared to fossil fuel-based energy sources.

### Decommissioning:
- At the end of their operational life (typically 20-25 years), wind turbines can be dismantled and recycled, which can mitigate some of the initial carbon footprint.

### Overall Carbon Footprint:
- Studies have estimated that the lifecycle carbon footprint of wind energy is quite low. It can range from 10 to 20 grams of CO2 equivalent per kilowatt-hour (gCO2e/kWh) of electricity produced, depending on factors such as the turbine design, location, and energy source used in manufacturing.

### Comparison to Fossil Fuels:
- In comparison, fossil fuel-based power generation can produce anywhere from 400 to 1000 gCO2e/kWh, making wind energy significantly more environmentally friendly over its lifecycle.

In summary, while there is some carbon footprint associated with the manufacturing and installation of wind turbines, the operational phase is clean, and the overall lifecycle emissions are much lower than traditional fossil fuel energy sources.

What is the carbon footprint (co2 not carbon) of wind turbines.

Wind turbines that produce much less electricity than they tell us?

Wind turbines that break more often and are inoperable much faster than they say.

Wind turbines that cost billions, now trillions, now tens of trillions.

What does it matter what the carbon footprint is, they are proven failed.

You’re just saying words. How about details… ya know like I provided…

So that stuff he said oil being needed to operate them, the crane it would to erect one, plus he said the amount of carbon it takes to build one and put them up with diesel powered cranes. So in the 20 year life span he said it wouldn't offset the footprint the power it takes to MAKE THEM.

That's not true? About the laying of the transmission lines that would be needed to get power to the cities? You think it would little less than 30 years to do that? How long?

The statist left marxinazis are into power & control one world without borders power tripping. The whole green movement was 100% geared for P/C as the enviro issues were just used as a smoke screen to cover the statist lefts nefarious true intent.

Details? You provided no details. Wind turbines are falling apart

Let's start with leading edge damage scattering trillions of micro plastics into the environment that get ingested by fish and animals

Where does your comments address this problem. Who is going to repair the damage to the ocean. To corn fiels. To deserts and mountains.

We already have a replacement for most of it, it's called nuclear power. The most environmentally friendly power there is, with one exception, hydroelectric.

Nukes a bit nicer, you can put them exactly where you need them avoiding miles of power lines.

Yep, small plants can be mass produced and strategically located. The only real limitation is a reliable source of cooling water.

If the city is there the water problem is solved by waste water, sewage. Like the 3 nukes in the Arizona desert outside of phoenix

You've missed out the effects on wildlife and the impact on pricing. Co2 is plant food and we're in a co2 drought, so saving co2 is irrelevant, but not to a Climate Alarmist.

 

[LeftofLeft]

Climate Change is just another angle for the Left to get what they really want - CONTROL. In every crisis, a Democrat will spout what a great opportunity it is for them. We saw it during COVID. Democrats pushed shut downs except for riots and protests.

Total bullshit. Lies , pure lies. If any of that were true we wouldn't have been able to build anything. Data proves they pay for themselves in a few years. All the rest is gravy. That's what renewables are all about. Get your advice from reliable scientists , not ones bought and paid for by Big Oil. They're going to milk this for all it's worth until they run out in less than 50 years. So then where will you be.

What does it matter what the carbon footprint is, they are proven failed.

Unless you can manufacture every single component of a every tubine using only non polluting energy it still has at least some carbon footprint. Yes, it can operate cleanly but not be built without it, at least for now.

Now it's still far less than that of fossil fuels but to claim that it is completely carbon neutral at every step is not true.

This is the same BS that the companies like Tesla claim about their cars, even as they power their factories and charge their vehicles with energy generated by coal and oil.

You have to be a Big Oil spokesperson. What a joke , bad joke you are. Especially if you're not one. Then you're being their fool for nothing.

No disagreement .

But my wish is to see the holy grail of ZPE be top of the discussion and investigative agenda .

Obviously the Sheeple have been entrained to believe that this is a ridiculous pipe dream and that it should be consigned to the nuttier end of Conspiracy Theories.

However , there are many specialists and checked out whistleblowers who insist that Deep State has had ZPE from the 1950s as a direct result of reverse engineering from crash retrievals.
A separate subject for a possible Topic .

If true, this represents the reveal of the greatest ever secret , because once realised the planet will be changed forever and the Elite would risk losing everything -- the real reason JFK was killed because he wanted this and related subjects declassified .
Allegedly .

I am still hopeful that this subject could become global top news very ,very soon as Dr Greer and a huge number of top level whistleblowers are due to break such news , with major governments already briefed about the Disclosure details . According to the Doctor .

All highly interesting and it would be brilliant to be alive when such a move forward occurred .

 

[MisterBeale]

If the folks that defend wind power are so sure, why can't we, as a society, just do away with energy subsidies, or give them all the same?


Why do we need government choosing winners and losers?


Most American know that this is dumb and inefficient.
