I was talking to an older relative about increasing tornadoes when she said, “It’s all the solar panels and windmills”. I was floored. If she had said solar panels or wind mills, that’s one thing. But blaming them both? It seemed so wild and like an obvious conspiracy benefiting fossil fules… Anyway she passed away. RIP.
My cousin’s wife is convinced that offshore wind energy is all a scam, when I bring up to her that sure there might be corruption in any given infrastructure/business deal, it is always possible, but that there is a clear established history of fossil fuel companies manipulating the public perception for profit and they have WAY more resources to do so than virtually any other industry/entity on earth.
Nope, she got angry when I brought that up when she told me second hand anecdotal stories about how Offshore Wind is all a scam and kills fish because that was “beside the point”.
It…kills fish? Has she heard of ‘deepwater horizon’?
RIP.
Pretty sure is well founded by the oil and gas industries
Those execs gotta get murdered yesterday.
