"Green" policies are destroying this country

For a rag tag bunch so concerned over bogs you would wonder where they were when wind farms were being built on bogs that subsequently, after many warnings as to what it would lead too, caused major landslides in Donegal and Galway..

But then I doubt like much else they spout about, they wouldn`t know a bog if they were buried up to the neck in one. One green keyboard warrior that hasn`t been around for a while always referred to burning turf as burning dirt.

No need to concern yourself too much about this bog saving ecstasy. It will be very short lived. This time next year whatever peat we will not be able to use ourselves we may be exporting as a fuel to quite a few countries. :) Good thing is that we still have plenty of it.

And just wait until they find out the cost of continually repairing the turbine blade edges or how inefficient they become if they aren't repaired regularly.

It's not just Ireland and Germany have energy policies on the point of causing serious economic upheaval. The New England area of the United States population circa 15 million people is an unbelievable situation where a country that has the natural gas resources in nearby States, but is obstructed at every turn when trying to build the pipeline infrastructure. Not only that, they have to import LNG at international prices, in extreme cold situations the gas must be diverted to home heating and the electricity generation companies burn oil instead.

That the same Cork City Council where councillors are actively trying to sabotage BusConnects and active travel?

Yes the robo trees are still there. Phenomenal waste of money.

How much money?

2011 the E.U. sent a letter. 11 years later they are sending another letter. Not exactly the immanent appearance before the ECJ you were attempting to portray now is it. ?

Still good to know that if that very unlikely ever became the case then from their recent statement it would be contested by the Irish Government and in particular Malcolm Noonan Green Part T.D. and Junior Minister for Heritage.

If it is not acceptable to you that the E.U. not enforcing this directive to the letter of the law also mean it is not acceptable to you that the E.U is not enforcing to the letter of the law our noncompliance on energy security, or is it like much else also excusable under green hypocrisy ?

An exact amount or a percentage of what it would take to add all the wind capacity that greens are wishing for that they haven`t a clue on how much it would cost ?

I`m not attempting to portray anything. Just pointing out that the E.U. "action" 11 years ago was a letter and that they are now going to repeat that with another letter is not this imminent ECJ court case you have been attempting to portray.

Amused that should there be an unlikely case brought by the E.U. then Malcolm Noonan Green Part T.D. and Junior Minister for Heritage will be front and center on behalf of Ireland defending the Irish Government position. For the Irish green Party with friends like the FIE who needs enemies.🤣

As usual no reply to the faux outrage question of you calling for the letter of the law being applied for a pretty much nothing over a few bog banks in a small number of SAC areas, (rather than all bogs which you are attempting to portray this as), while ignoring the non-compliance on energy security which has much more serious implication for the country than a few bog banks

Just the usual green hypocrisy and further evidence of your lack of credibility.

When the wind is strong... What then?

I'll ask again, how many solar panels do you have installed?
