The windmills are spinning golden subsidies in the central German ‘fairy tale’ forest of Reinhardswald, but the payment is the partial destruction of the 1,000 year-old ancient wood itself. Work has started on the clearing of up to 120,000 trees in the forest, the setting for many of the Brothers Grimm mythical stories, to provide access for an initial 18 giant wind turbines around the Sababurg ‘Sleeping Beauty’ castle. Who is opposing this massive destruction of the ancient forest teeming with wildlife with trees over 200 years old? Certainly not the Green party, now in power at national and local level. In fact the project is being led by local Hesse Green Minister Priska Hinz who is reported to have said: “Wind energy makes a decisive contribution to the energy transition and the preservation of nature. It is the only way to preserve forests and important ecosystems.”
There is some local press interest in Germany about the destruction of part of the forest that covers a 200 square kilometre area. Nevertheless, the mainstream media generally keep well away from covering environmental destruction when the Greens are doing it in the claimed cause of saving the planet. The BBC did cover the story under the headline ‘Battle over wind turbines in the land of Sleeping Beauty‘, but that was in 2013 when plans for the industrial development were first announced. It seems that the state-reliant broadcaster is less interested now that the Big Bad Wolf has finally made a meal of Little Red Riding Hood.
Pierre Gosselin, who runs the German-based science site No Tricks Zone, has been covering the outrage felt in a number of German quarters at the plans to destroy some of the Reinhardswald forest in the interest of inferior green technology. He feels the affair shows what an inefficient and costly scam green energy is. “It’s not cost-free, it’s full of corrupt and unresponsive politicians who no longer care about democracy, and it certainly doesn’t make the environment better. It’s a nasty juggernaut of waste, fraud, corruption and ecological degradation – with dead birds, turbine vibration sickness, strobe dizziness and landscape pollution,” he adds.
The Guardian has been curiously silent over the clearing of woodland to build wind turbines in Hesse. In 2020 it was less reticent about reporting on the construction of a 3 km highway in another Hessian forest at Dannenroder. Thousands of climate activists gathered on the site north of Frankfurt, it reported. Dannenroder tree-felling would be a catastrophe, environmental campaigners are reported to have said. “Some parts of this forest are 250 years old,” noted Nicola Uhde of the German Federation for the Environment and Nature Conservation (Bund), “and there is simply not much of this kind of woodland around anymore.” At the time, the Guardian noted the fate of Dannenroder was a “litmus test for the Green party” which governed the state as part of a coalition. It seems to have been remiss in not suggesting such a test with the Reinhardswald deforestation. But then it seems none of the usual climate activists have been protesting about the loss of trees and wildlife habitat on this occasion.
The Daily Sceptic has reported on numerous recent examples where the lack of interest in ecological damage is a feature of green industrial development. Last month, we noted that one of India’s iconic large birds, the great Indian bustard, was on the verge of extinction due to the growth of electric power lines in its home area of the Thar desert. To reach global Net Zero, it has been estimated that new power lines equivalent to circling the globe 2,000 times will need to be built in the next few years.
Last October, we reported that wind farms in Tasmania had reduced the population of the endangered local wedge-tailed eagle to around 1,000 individuals. Across the world, millions of bats are being chewed by giant wind blades. Any animal that relies on wind currents for flight such as a large raptor is at risk of being sucked into the whirling machines. In California, the Democrat-controlled state Government recently relaxed controls on wildlife protections to allow permits to kill previously fully protected species for renewable infrastructure projects. Despite an increased risk to America’s national bird, the bald eagle, barely a peep of protest was recorded. Off America’s eastern coast, massive industrial parks are being constructed for wind turbines. It might be a coincidence that hundreds of whales have beached along the shore in recent years, but a more likely explanation is the deafening sonar noise, constant pile driving, extensive ocean building works and heavy shipping movements.
None of the above are likely to feature when the magic mirror is asked: “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the greenest one of all?”

Shall they be banned from society if they refuse? I mean the fact is they are getting jabbed again because they are no longer showing signs of being vaxxed. So…..
Let’s hope so. Let’s hope that when the penny drops, they realise they will NEVER be “fully” vaccinated if they don’t keep up with the stabs. This is what it will take to wake up some more…but not all!
Some great insights here;

Really great link. Thank you. I am reading through some of the other Julius posts.
I can’t wait to see the impact of boosters on vaccine passports. Sit back and enjoy the show
Not a problem for those who don’t have family and friends. Besides my partner, all my friends and family have been fully reprogrammed by the government terrorism and will be in the scrum to get their next dose of poison. I’m afraid I’ll not be joining you to enjoy the show.
I was referring to the impact on the vaccine passports rather than the impact on people receiving the boosters. I too am very concerned about the latter. But the vaccine passport system will not be able to cope with the boosters, who’s due to have them and who’s “out of date”. Many people will refuse. The proportion of “fully vaccinated” will dwindle with each successive booster. This will be the government’s downfall. Give it a couple of years, and I predict this house of cards will collapse.
I like your optimism. Let’s hope the collapse happens in a much shorter timeframe though!
Sadly, though, the vaccine poison will be integrated into society and bodies. Th longer term effects of the vaccine on health will be apparent but dismissed as not connected to the vaccines. By then they’ll have got to the younger children and maybe even babies.
>The proportion of “fully vaccinated” will dwindle with each successive booster.
THAT IS the plan. No travel for proles.
As Alanis Morissette said “Isn’t it ironic, don’t you think?”
The loudest voices in support of vaccines, boosters, vaccine passports and lockdowns to keep them safe, seem to come from people who – even prior to March 2020 – rarely went to the pub, were past going to nightclubs (if they ever went at all) and didn’t go to crowded sports stadia.
Theirs may be the loudest voices in the media – but the real enthusiasm comes from the youth and younger element, who aren’t in the least danger but just see the jabs as their road to freedom. Many of them are also being paid for doing nothing, so don’t mind what is risibly called ”lockdown”.
My very elderly mum is already saying she won’t have a booster jab. I bet she’s not alone.
Mine won’t be having one either because the first two probably ended her life prematurely.
I’m sorry to hear that. My mum has deteriorated shockingly (and irreversibly) since her second injection. I wish she’d listened to me instead of her friends.
My husband is saying the same but then again, he said he wasn’t getting vaccinated yet did…
Hovering a claw over the ‘reset status’ button on all those passports must make Billy grin.
Do I need 3 now?
Or is it just the latest that’s required to activate the passports, if so, I guess I’ll hold out until I’m ready to escape the country, first and last go on the Russian roulette needle…. Or I could just get a dinghy.
Why are they bothering to wait for the JCVI? They’ll just do what they want anyway.
Watch for the spike in deaths when they ‘boost’ the elderly and frail which will give them the excuse for the ‘firebreak’ lockdown that they’re not planning.
Which will give them the excuse to inject the children which they’re not planning. Oh wait, they are.
I find that so depressing – even down to the 5 year olds has been mentioned. I look at my under-5 grandkids and wonder how they’ll fare as my daughter-in-law will be first in the queue with them if they get to that age group. And what’s to stop them????
https://www.sciencemediacentre.org/expert-reaction-to-comments-from-jeremy-hunt-about-the-covid-19-booster-schedule-including-his-thoughts-that-we-should-just-get-on-not-wait-for-that-advice-in-reference-to-the-jcvi/
“The JCVI is a committee of experts set up to advise the government on immunisation and vaccination.1 In a way comparable to NICE, with other drugs and treatments, it makes recommendations on vaccination. Where they have been requested by ministers to answer a particular question (‘should we use this vaccine?’), the government is then legally obliged to follow their recommendations; but the committee also undertakes ‘horizon-scanning’ and can make other recommendations, which will not have the force of law.
“As discussed above, if the JCVI is tasked by ministers with answering a specific question, then the government is obliged to implement that decision; but other than in these circumstances, the JCVI’s role is advisory, and ministers can make decisions taking into consideration the views of JCVI, other government advisory committees, and financial and political considerations.”
But no-one appears to have actually asked the idiots the question WHY a booster is needed?
Is it because the jabs don’t work? Or is it to attempt to cover up expected side effects?
Anyone like to hazard a guess how many jabs will be required to be “fully vaccinated” by, say, the end of the year?
Well Israel are on their fourth and it’s working really well as they currently have the highest infection rate in the world.
I admit, I thought Israel’s still on three, with queues round the block for it and a ‘vax pass’ that’ll run out precisely six months after the third jab. Which, of course, in the longer term means jabs ongoing. I think Turkey is deffo on four, certainly for the healthcare sector.
It must by now be fairly obvious to anyone with even half a brain cell that these injections ain’t what was claimed, either in terms of what they could ‘prevent’ or in terms of the appalling side effects. I’ve just entertained myself on the BBC hys by pointing out that their third jab is really only to put off the expected explosion of ADE this autumn.
Does anyone know if there have been any post mortems done on triple and quadruple jabbed individuals yet? And is there a yellow card equivalent for Israel? Talk about human guinea pigs!
If you haven’t seen this already, I can recommend it. Del Bigtree talking about all sorts of up to date stuff including a good, easily digestible explanation of A.D.E
To your point, he talks to the Pathologist Dr Ryan Cole who states there has been ONE post Mortem in the USA!
As he rightly says, a new experimental drug is being administered in numbers never seen before, but nobody, not Governments, not scientists, nobody seems to wants to investigate how or why it is causing injuries and deaths in record breaking numbers!
https://rumble.com/vlve7n-are-we-starting-to-see-a.d.e..html
I’m sure it’s going to get worse, but some days you wonder how? Yep fourth, fifth, ad infinitum!
Israel’s national coronavirus czar on Saturday called for the country to begin making preparations to eventually administer fourth doses of the coronavirus vaccine.
“Given that that the virus is here and will continue to be here, we also need to prepare for a fourth injection,” Salman Zarka told Kan public radio. This is our life from now on, in waves,” he said.
Could Israel be going all out for the Marek Effect.
A leaky vaccine was used to fight a virus in high-density chicken barns. Vaccinated chickens were protected from severe outcomes but continued to catch and spread the virus. A variant emerged that spread among the vaccinated chickens without killing them but killed 80% of unvaccinated birds when they got infected.
Though maybe ADE will spoil the party.
Well, I’m no expert, obvs, but to test the Marek principle (essentially a vaccine that doesn’t stop you getting it or passing it on, but protects you from death while it leaks out and kills most people who haven’t been jabbed), you’d need to observe a large number of people in a cut-off place. So Israel’s probably out as they freely let their citizens out of the country. Australia on the other hand …
It’s not much fun being an unjabbed chicken at present, eh?
Although it seems their jabs will be about as much use at killing me as they are at ‘protecting’ those who’ve taken them. Which is to say they will be, and are, utter crap.
I’ve raised the same points with my pro-‘vax’ family.
If they really do understand the effects of this fake vaccine, why didn’t they know the efficacy would run out so fast?
Truth is, their is no efficacy because it’s not designed to protect you from Covid-19. The bastards have the population believing that the fake vaccine has kept hospitalisations low over the summer. People have seemingly forgot that respiratory illnesses all but vanish in warm seasons.
They started boosters in care homes in Germany. First news reports – yes the MSM is actually reporting it! – of near fatalities in a care home in NRW.
At least 2 residents had to be resuscitated a few days after.
Officials saying “we’re still investigating any possible connections”.
At least a local GP said he will not administer boosters until there is more knowledge.
The GP will get nobbled in some way detrimental to his life…
Can’t they just fuck off and leave us alone? Is that really too much to ask?
We’re going to have to make them, I’m afraid.
Being at war with your own government is a new thing for most people in the UK but we’re going to have to get used to the idea. Perhaps some of our older East European friends can advise us on how to survive under a totalitarian regime and eventually overthrow it.
Unfortunately it seems to be these days. And what is even more concerning is that if you say that in front of many normals (and I have, many times) they look at you as if you are asking for something completely unreasonable!
Every time – they start off by talking about these policies like the idea is merely being floated. We’re told they’re not likely to do it… but if they do… it’ll only be for the most vulnerable. Then suddenly, they’re not talking about eligibility, they’re demanding the entire population gets a needle stuck in their arm.
I don’t know how many more times we’re going to witness this blatant strategy without the general public noticing the pattern.
Even dumb animals learn trends and start to alter their behaviour if that trend is a potential threat. But the public are suffering collective psychosis and their sense of reality is shot to smithereens.
Good luck to everyone trying in agony to persuade their loved ones to avoid these injections. It feels like holding on to their hand as they hang off a cliff, but the government/media/medical world is squirting snake oil on our grip.
I have given up warning family and friends. They have been made fully aware of what is really happening; I have shared articles, studies and data since March 2020. Like Nostrapharmas, I have given them a glimpse into their future of digital-public health-social control tyranny and yet they still suck at the teat of Boris like a hungry, malnourished pup. Frankly, if my family and friends are still too dumb to see what is going on, then they probably deserve everything that is coming to them.
Nosrapharmas…love it. I too am like a person of two-halves…I am just so fed-up of explaining this shit to people…let’s face it we still have people thinking a Positive PCR test is a diagnosis of Covid for goodness sake….There isn’t one bit of this scamdemic that stands up to any rational thought or examination.
At the same time some of these numpty’s are my family and friends and I don’t want anything bad to happen to them.
In the the case of the third full vaccine dose, please stop calling it by the designated name of booster..more psy ops…tell it like it is, they are having a third full dose because one and two have failed! I do think lots of people are waking up a bit, I know a few who don’t want it and won’t put themselves forward for it.
Some while ago I read the government had ordered something like 540 million vaccine doses. What’s the number up to now?
In a comment following the previous article on here today, it stated that Government had signed a contract with the firm Entrust, worth £1.6 millions, for vaccine passports, valid until March 22, with the option of a further year. I looked up Entrust’s website – my blood ran cold. Everyone in Britain, if not on the planet, needs to see it – it is everything that we who have been labelled conspiracy theorists warned against. It must surely open people’s eyes to what is really going on. https://www.entrust.com/?edc_sfid=7015Y000002ePv6QAE&gclid=Cj0KCQjw4eaJBhDMARIsANhrQABUTs86NECMKQWts6j80pOxFXk1AlWM7tbh16OFcVYagEfuVgG-b1waAv_bEALw_wcB
I’m sure like most of us you realised you were wasting your time. As Mark Twain (allegedly) said “It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they’ve been fooled”
“Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it”
https://theconversation.com/why-did-thalidomides-makers-ignore-warnings-about-their-drug-47092
Why does this site (and the BBC) feel the need to show a huge close-up of a hypodermic syringe almost every the jab is mentioned? Needle phobics all over the world must be having a hard time with this.
(Totally missing the point of the issue, I know, but still; just like masked faces are here, there and everywhere on advertising – although this appears to be easing off now.)
Ridiculous and pointless. It’s no different to blindfolding someone, putting him in a darkened room, giving him a sheaf of darts and telling him to hit a bullseye on an imaginary dartboard.
Danger porn.
I’m trending this…(can one person whose not on any official media trend anything? LOL!)
#it’s not a booster it’s a full third dose of a vaccine because doses one and too failed!
I sincerely hope that people boycott the booster in vast numbers. I know double-jabbed individuals who are certainly having second thoughts about it.
I suppose the danger is then that the so-called Leaders will double down on the passport stuff. Sometimes I think we’re done for whatever happens.
How many times can you ‘boost’ the immune system? Real science tells me ONLY ONCE
Unless you want Immune Cell Exhaustion and the problems that causes…
This has all gone WAY beyond public health. No-one’s speaking of a deadly viral disease any more and the danger of bodies on the streets, etc. This is more and more obviously about money and power. I shouldn’t have thought there’d be many TerminallyTerrified out there, who are gagging for this ”booster” – though they’ll queue up for it, thinking it’ll mean ”Freedom”.
