Fire Risk and Wind Turbines on Your Land

source I post an email from a friend which arrived in my inbox today. VERY important issue about fire safety and wind turbines on your property and properties nearby. Dear Friends, I recently came across some information that I think is very important for all of us to be aware of regarding the heightened risk of fire resulting from wind turbines. Not many people know that if a fire breaks out, whether due to the wind turbines themselves or from any other source, water bombing and other aerial support to firefighters may be difficult or even impossible in the vicinity of wind turbines. Please see the following: Letter from a Firefighter’s Wife https://stopthesethings.com/2013/01/11/as-australia-burns-an-impassioned-plea-from-a-fire-fighters-wife/comment-page-1/ Communities Burned by Turbines (Cached webpage) https://webarchive.nla.gov.au/awa/20130123125049/http://pandora.nla.gov.au/pan/141218/20180503-0021/stopthesethings.files.wordpress.com/2013/01/communities-burned-by-turbine...

What is a Disaster Adaption Plan? Disaster Adaption Plans are being implemented around the world as part of a United Nations push to control land, even privately owned land, under the guise of protecting citizens from future "climate related hazards." Sounds reasonable, doesn't it? The word "protection."   But it is an insidious movement designed to force people into cities, where they are more easily controlled by directing public infrastructure into the hands of private entities. If it wasn't for Kate Mason's very informative video, which a friend put me onto today, I certainly would never have heard of it! She explains  here    "Whatever country is your home, disaster adaption is a global agenda channeled down through the United Nations. If your country signed the Sendai Framework 2015-2030, your country is bound to create climate adaption plans. The adaption plans are manufactured through the United Nations Environment Programme. These plans h...
