What would be the Right's reaction to an a tragic accident involving solar or wind power?

If there was an accident resulting in deaths at a factory manufacturing solar panels or wind technology, do you think Fox News and Rush Limbaugh would cover it differently than tragic accidents involving coal mining or the petroleum industry?
SEAN: Having worked in solar panel manufacturing for quite a while now, I can tell there are plenty of hazards. Exposure to poison gases and chemicals, electric shock, fire, lasers, robotics, annealed glass to name a few.

JACKASSHOLE: Have you ever heard of windmills? They’re still in use today.

    I’m sure they’d love to point out that they’re not exactly safe, either, and use it to point out that any sort of technology covers some dangers, thus let’s keep using coal/oil/nuclear. But I doublt they’d seriously say ‘lets ban solar, the sun’s just too hot to handle safely!’

  2. Commentor says:

    It would most likely be covered like the libs cover those of the oil and coal industry.

  3. FLSwampBoy says:

    It would depend on who’s in office at the time.

  4. Robert B says:

    Hopefully not out playing golf and partying like Obama did during the oil disaster

  5. Sean says:

    How could a tragic accident happen at such a place, someone fall off a ladder or something?

  6. Barack The Magic Jackasshole says:

    what do they manufacture at a wind factory?

    Pray tell a tornado doesn’t cause too much wind, then Obama and his Nazi scum would call for a moratorium on the wind blowing

    About the same as low flush toilets less than 20% of water is used for household use the rest is industry and farming use and of that 20% a small percentage is used to flush the toilet a complete and total waste of money
    Now they have come up with pressurised toilet Great idea let’s see how much shi# we can push into the air

    The alternative energy hustle has already been a tragic accident in Eruope wher it has left nations drowning in Billions of debt and nothing to show for it.

    Europeans are now dealing with the rusting remains of windmills that will never produce enough electricity to pay for their constant maintenence.
    The abandoned wind farms only serve to slaughter migratory birds.

    Spain, who Obama used to point to as an example, had an established green energy industry that was heavily subsidized by the government. With their growing debt Spain cut back subsidies by 30% and over night the entire industry collapsed.

    Now these solar and wind power con artists are on this side of the Atlantic pulling the same scam.

Who am I ?

Hi, I’m Erik Astrand and the man behind this site.

My story?
I am about to be 50 and all my life I have been interested in technical things. Not sure if the special interest for the wind, and how to use the wind, started when I as a 5 year old boy and got my first sail dinghy.

Anyway, wind power and to build my own wind generator was a dream for several years. I studied many websites and also bought many courses before I finally built my own windmill. This site is about that journey and you will also find some more general articles about wind power.

Enjoy! and check out the about me page to read more.
