2012-03-27 Las medidas encaminadas a frenar el calentamiento planetario han despertado un profundo deseo a escala mundial de desplegar energía renovable. A consecuencia de ello, la utilización de turbinas eólicas ha aumentando diez veces en el pasado decenio y se ha promocionado la energía eólica como la más rentable oportunidad ecológica. Según Connie Hedegaard, la comisaria de la Unión Europea encargada de los asuntos relativos al clima, "los ciudadanos deben creer que (la energía eólica) es muy, muy barata".  En realidad, esa afirmación es muy problemática.

2012-03-19 Snaha zastavit globální oteplování vyvolala celosvětově silné nutkání rozvíjet obnovitelnou energii. V důsledku toho se za posledních deset let desetinásobně zvýšilo využívání větrných turbín, neboť větrná energie bývá často vychvalována jako nejefektivnější zelená příležitost. Podle Connie Hedegaardové, komisařky Evropské unie pro otázky klimatu, by "lidé měli věřit, že (větrná energie) je velmi, velmi levná". (...)

  2012-02-26 Еден од најголемите експерименти во светот за јавната политика за зелена енергија се движи кон огорчен крај во Германија, со важни лекции за креаторите на политиката на други места. Германија некогаш се гордееше дека е „фотогалвански светски шампион“, делејќи дарежливи субвенции од 130 милијарди долари на граѓаните да инвестираат во соларна енергија. Но, сега германската влада ветува дека ќе ги намали субвенциите поскоро отколку што планираше и постепено ќе ја елиминира поддршката во наредните пет години. Што тргна во погрешна насока? (...)
