Destroying this ….
You know it’s a cult when followers happily justify clear-felling forests to make way for giant industrial wind turbines.
Those that worship wind power have set new standards in cognitive dissonance. One minute they’re ranting about saving the planet; the next they’re leading the charge in its immediate and permanent destruction.

The Ardern government is clinging to its Covid elimination strategy, even as the Ministry of Health is looking at the need for booster shots for those who were vaccinated six months ago.
A new study by researchers in Britain has found that protection offered by the Pfizer vaccine, which is 88% effective in the first month, begins to fade within five to six months of the second injection. By then it is only 74% effective The Astra-Zeneca vaccine is only 67% effective after about five months.
New Zealand’s Director-General of Health, Ashley Bloomfield, today confirmed officials are considering booster injections for those who received their Pfizer vaccines in February, March and April.
Among NZ experts there has been debate on whether booster shots would be necessary. They agree the Pfizer vaccine is highly effective at preventing serious disease, hospitalisation and death.
