Editor’s note: The following article appeared in Denmark’s largest daily newspaper, Jyllandsposten. Alas, the article is written in Danish. We used Google Translate to translate into English. It’s a pretty bumpy translation, but it gives you the general idea of what’s going on.
What’s going on is that Vestas, the turbine giant, is pissed off at sites like ours and Australia’s Stop These Things and Ontario Wind Resistance and at people like Drs. Pierpont and Laurie—and, by golly, the “big guy” is fighting back.
Sit back and enjoy! (None of the images, below, were used in the original article.)

Provides wind turbines children learning difficulties? No, says Vestas is ready to campaign.
There will be scattered too many falsehoods and myths about wind turbines and wind energy.

Therefore, it has now decided to take up the fight, and the weapon is a so-called Act on Facts campaign, which aims to provide wind opponents a factual counterpart based on scientifically based information.
“The goal of the campaign is to give a more proactive response to the anti-wind movement that has gained momentum during several parts of the world in recent years, although it represents only exceptional few attitude towards wind energy,” says Communications at Vestas Morten Albaek.
The campaign is based in Australia, which is one of the most suitable nations to wind energy, but also a hotbed of anti-wind movement.
In addition to wind turbine customers and Vestas also suffer the environment and transition to green energy under the pressure of turbine opponents. It feels campaign creators, who points out that wind energy projects that could save the environment 5 million. tonnes of CO2 per year will be curbed.
Professional actors
The problem is that it is difficult to find out who is behind the anti-wind movement. According to Vestas, these are professionals with strong resources that are able to influence citizens and politicians.
