Provides the resources that promoters of industrial wind don't. Armed with information beyond their sales pitch, you can decide for yourself whether the elusive benefits of large-scale wind energy development are enough to justify the further destruction of communities, the environment, and individual lives.
Industrial Wind Action is dedicated to providing information on industrial wind energy to enable communities and government officials to make informed decisions.
Wind is a renewable resource...our Niagara Escarpment landscape is not.
This paper makes the case for a moratorium on rural, green-belt planning permission for industrial wind-driven turbine electricity production in proximity to residential dwellings, pending full clinical evaluation and conclusions of health hazards alone.
There is much anecdotal evidence that noise from wind turbines causes problems for those living near several wind developments in Britain. Turbines are regularly switched off to protect those living or working nearby from the effects of shadow flicker. Both the wind developments and the turbines themselves are increasing in size and applications are being considered for the erection of turbines only 400 metres from dwellings.
Modern, utility-scale wind turbines are relatively quiet; still, when sited within residential areas, noise is a primary siting constraint.
Wind power is produced in large scale wind farms connected to electrical grids, as well as in individual turbines for providing electricity to isolated locations.

Who are we? 

We are a group of Innisfil residents concerned with the project of installation wind farms in our town, the first one being planned in the vicinity of Highway 400 and the 6th Line in Innisfil, Ontario.

 

We are not opposed to renewable energy – in fact, some of us are actively involved in the protection of the environment. But we are not convinced that wind energy is the answer to today’s energy and environmental challenges and we do not believe that the installation of a wind farm in a populated and growing community like Innisfil is in the interest of the local population or the protection of our environment.

 

Although a lot is being said and written about wind energy and wind turbines, it is difficult to find honest and unbiased answers to all our questions. The purpose of this site is to provide you with links to sites dealing with this subject as well as an update on our actions to fight the installation of windfarms in Innisfil.
