Donald Trump has long held negative views towards wind energy, often citing its impact on property values and health concerns. His recent comments reflect his ongoing campaign against windmill development, particularly in the UK, where he has linked windmills to economic decline. This hostility stems partly from his previous conflicts with Scottish authorities regarding wind farm construction near one of his golf properties.
The UK government, under Prime Minister Keir Starmer, is committed to expanding offshore wind energy as part of its goal to quadruple wind generation capacity by 2030. This shift aims to foster a low-carbon economy and improve air quality. The introduction of the windfall tax on fossil fuel companies is a strategic move to prioritize sustainable energy sources and mitigate climate change effects.
Trump’s rhetoric about windmills often garners attention due to its sensational nature, yet it also resonates with a segment of the public resistant to change. His remarks about wind energy have sparked debates about the future of fossil fuels versus renewables. As Trump continues to speak out against wind energy, observers are concerned about the implications for both US and UK energy policies amidst a global shift toward sustainability.
Former President Donald Trump has once again expressed his disdain for windmills, particularly in relation to recent developments in the UK’s energy sector. Trump’s latest remarks on Truth Social indicate his frustration with the UK’s windfall tax, which affects oil drilling in the North Sea, a significant location for fossil fuel extraction. This tax, designed to increase revenue from energy companies, has prompted Apache Corporation, a Texas oil company, to cease drilling operations in the area. As the UK government seeks to boost wind energy production, Trump’s historical opposition to wind turbines, especially near one of his Scottish golf courses, resurfaces, raising concerns about his influence on global energy discourse.Windmills don’t even offset the carbon footprint for making one.. Environmental wackos promote this like they promote electric cars when the lithium batteries the cause more damage to the environment, then oil. If there’s any money in this Chevron and Exxon would be shoving them all over the world. The only reason they use in West Texas is there’s no power out there in the desert and pump jacks need electricity and oil, refineries, etc. they are also totally devastating to birds.
Why do you have a picture of Netanyahu? Just trying to generate clicks by ginning up the hatred and animosity from your legions of antisemitic viewers?
Didnt know the Trump stench made its way into Canada. Canadian Magats are called Maple Magas. 😅 The orange chaos is taking America to isolationism where global trade is gonna shift around and ultimately make China the economic super power and the center of global trade as this is already happening with South America. Trump is a gift for the CCP. And, China is already leading in renewable energy and their military weaponry is getting more and more sophisticated. Ya done fd up, America. 😅
I know people who build these , they are awful in every way. If they actually produced enough to offset the cost of damage and money, then sure build more.
