Abused elders will take a second seat as they watch the hundreds of events organised worldwide to convince people that wind farms are useful, cheap, harmless to birds and people, good for property values and great for tourism and the economy.
Tomorrow, June 15th, the wind lobby will be celebrating Global Wind Day. Its choice of day coincides with the WORLD ELDER ABUSE AWARENESS DAY, as per United Nations’ resolution A/RES/66/127. This evidences a lack of respect for the elders, especially those that are victims of abuse. Is it surprising? - Not really. Wind farm victims are also treated with contempt. They are ignored, or even accused of imagining their insomnias, headaches, nauseas, tachycardias, etc.
