Subject: Very odd ideas about wind turbines

https://theconversation.com/wind-turbine-syndrome-farm-hosts-tell-very-different-story-18241

Anti-wind farm activists have promoted a bizarre and ever-growing number of health problems associated with turbine exposure. My favourite is the alarming problem of disoriented echidnas.

Among Laurie’s more interesting claims is that wind turbines cause lips to vibrate at up 10 kilometres, and that within 1km to 2km of wind turbines, air pressure changes occur “sufficient to knock them off their feet or bring some men to their knees when out working in their paddock” and “have been reported by farmers to perceptibly rock stationary cars”.

Laurie has repeatedly claimed that “a large number” or “over twenty families” and most recently “more than forty” families are “wind farm refugees” who have had to abandon their homes. But Laurie has declined requests to make her list public.

Another prominent activist George Papadopolous, claims to be able to sense a wind turbine at 100km away: from Sydney’s CBD to Lithgow, as the crow flies.

Well there must be some level of resonance at some distance…

I’ll reverberate more later.

Thanks, love a good windfarm conspiracy. We have the Landscape Guardians here. Trying to preserve a landscape that the Europeans assiduously cleared 150 years ago…

No Title

…having said that, I have visited the Windy Hill wind farm up at Ravenshoe on the Atherton Tablelands.
There are 20 large turbines on that site. Each turbine is 600kW (12MW total)

I don’t know about specific “health” problems but the noise would probably annoy me pretty bad. Particularly at night.
Those units can generate some very noticable noise.

But then, I can get annoyed by my neigbours noisy air-conditioner running, so there you go.
I’m a light sleeper and can’t handle certain types of noise, especially “pulsing sounds” or those mechanical sounds generated by electromagnetic motors, such as in air-cons/exhaust fans.
I live in an apartment and I can hear when my neigbours turn on their bathroom exhaust fan, it resonates through the walls, and gives me the shits late at night if they leave in running continuously!
