German Conservationists Score Win In Battle To Protect 1000-Year Old “Grimm’s Fairytale Forest” From Green Insanity
When I was a kid, my aunt was one of those chaining themselves to trees in order to avoid the downing of some trees for the building of the Hamburg Danube hydropower station. Hainburg would have produced almost 400 MW of reliable, constant energy. We can all have opinions on the rights and wrongs of the greens then but saving forests was a strong argument. My aunt has passed the 80 years mark and is still sympathetic to the green cause but I doubt that she would condone the razing of forests for wind turbines.
