Not So Safe: Spontaneous Wind Turbine Fires Pose Mortal Threat to Life & Property

Spread the love

STT has covered wind turbine fires dozens of times, including those which have sparked out-of-control bushfires, placing life at mortal risk.

Contrary to their ‘super-safe’, ‘clean’, ‘green’ image, giant industrial wind turbines are the perfect incendiary device.

Around the world, hundreds have exploded into in palls of smoke and balls of flame – in the process – each one raining molten metal and over 1,000 litres of flaming gear oil and hydraulic fluid (see our post here) and burning plastic earthwards.

Wind turbine fires are ten times more common than the wind industry and its parasites claim (see our post here and check out this website: http://turbinesonfire.org).

This time, the pyrotechnic action takes place in Ohio, where one of Ohio Northern University’s wind turbines put on quite a show. Having flamed out, the melting juggernaut collapsed to earth in even grander style.

Welcome to your wind powered future!
