14mph...if the winds are faster than 14mph they have to turn off generation. Otherwise, the wind turbine will tear itself apart.
Yup.
Too fast? Shut them down. Too slow? Don't work.
Generally useless? Yup.

Tell that to All the techs I talk to here in West Texas. Generation ceases above 14mph.Sort of. When a wind turbine exceeds its cut-out speed, it is necessary to brake the rotor so that it does not overload, which sacrifices power output -- it doesn't necessarily mean the system has to immediately shut down. Modern wind turbines are typically designed for a cut-out speed of 25 m/sec (56 MPH), although their survival speeds are far higher, typically not less than 40 m/sec and up to as much as 80 m/sec.

The World Economic Forum and the globalist movement it helps lead have used the "climate crisis" and the COVID-19 pandemic as pretexts for measures to redistribute the wealth of nations.
But this week, as WEF convenes is annual conference in Davos, Switzerland, the Arctic sea ice expanse so far this month is at a 30-year high, according to data from intergovernmental European Organization for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites, points out climate-change skeptic Tony Heller.
EUMETSAT, as the organization is known, was created through an international convention signed by 30 European nations.
The extent of Arctic ice during the warmer months long has been a metric for climate-change alarmists. In 2007, Al Gore began warning the world that scientists were predicting that by 2013, the Arctic would be ice-free during the summer.
Last September, Heller noted the Arctic Ocean had gained a record amount of sea ice for that time of year.
"Most years the Arctic loses ice, but this year ice extent has increased" more than 77,000 square miles, he wrote on Twitter, adding the news likely would not be reported by CNN, BBC News or the New York Times.
Meanwhile, the sea melt last summer was the lowest in 15 years, and the expanse of Antarctic sea was well above average.
Last September, amid the increase in Arctic ice, the New York Times reported a number of leading health and medical journals declared climate change "the greatest threat to global public health" and called on governments to respond with the urgency with which they confronted the coronavirus pandemic.
The declarations followed the announcement that the Biden Health and Human Services Department would treat climate change as a public health issue.
The Daily Caller pointed out at the time that governments and public health bodies could invoke emergency authority as they had in response to COVID-19 and enforce drastic measures such as curbing private-vehicle use, consumption of animal products and fossil fuel drilling.
This week, amid charges of ceding U.S. sovereignty to the World Health Organization, 12 of 13 amendments to the International Health Regulations submitted by the Biden administration for a vote in the World Health Assembly in Geneva were removed from consideration.
Among the amendments was a measure that would give the WHO director-general unilateral authority to declare a health emergency in a member nation according to the U.N. agency's broad definition of health as "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity."
Researchers who published a study in Nature Climate Change in March 2021 were delighted to find that during the 2020 lockdowns, carbon emissions fell by about 2.6 billion metric tons that year. A pandemic-scale lockdown once every two years, they concluded, would produce an equivalent decline in emissions over the long-term.
"If climate activists were allowed, they would take us from COVID lockdowns straight into climate lockdowns," JunkScience.com founder Steve Milloy told the Daily Caller. "Now that they've seen arbitrary lockdowns successfully imposed under the guise of a 'public health emergency,' they can’t wait for federal, state and local declarations of a climate emergency to achieve the same sort of dominance over us."
EDITOR'S NOTE: Last year, America's doctors, nurses and paramedics were celebrated as frontline heroes battling a fearsome new pandemic. Today, under Joe Biden, tens of thousands of these same heroes are denounced as rebels, conspiracy theorists, extremists and potential terrorists. Along with massive numbers of police, firemen, Border Patrol agents, Navy SEALs, pilots, air-traffic controllers, and countless other truly essential Americans, they're all considered so dangerous as to merit termination, their professional and personal lives turned upside down due to their decision not to be injected with the experimental COVID vaccines. Biden's tyrannical mandate threatens to cripple American society – from law enforcement to airlines to commercial supply chains to hospitals. It's already happening. But the good news is that huge numbers of "yesterday's heroes" are now fighting back – bravely and boldly. The whole epic showdown is laid out as never before in the sensational October issue of WND's monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled "THE GREAT AMERICAN REBELLION: 'We will not comply!' COVID-19 power grab ignites bold new era of national defiance."

While at the same time doing nothing to make you less dependent upon a car. It's more feel good environmentalism that lacks rational thought.The people pushing to make cars with ICEs illegal don't care - they want to limit our options for travel anyway, and make anything else a luxury that only they can afford.
Because your dealing with cultists not rational peopleWhile at the same time doing nothing to make you less dependent upon a car. It's more feel good environmentalism that lack rational thought.
This is false.The problem is that from an objective point of view, technological civilization as a whole is harmful to the environment and the more people it provides with a quality of life we'd consider acceptable, the more harm it does. The question is what to do about this.

Making artificial environment substitutes essential by destroying the original one while retaining human needs for oxygen, food, clean water, etc, would give artificial environment substitute companies an unacceptable degree of control over society by making everyone into a captive market. The price of hydroponically grown food and rental of airtight artificial habitats is now equivalent to all your earnings turning you into a perpetual debt-slave, don't like it, feel free to go outside and suffocate.You forgot an option.
4. So what?
Another issue with solar, that is kinda out of left field: crows dropping rocks on them. Seems it's enough of an issue in Japan they had to bring in falconers to help drive the crows off.
a) This isn't a binary question. You could do a shitload of damage to the environment and still not have everyone reliant on artificial substitutes.Making artificial environment substitutes essential by destroying the original one while retaining human needs for oxygen, food, clean water, etc, would give artificial environment substitute companies an unacceptable degree of control over society by making everyone into a captive market.
