About this episode

Green energy at the cost of greenery? That is perhaps how one could describe projects where we trade nature and biodiversity for wind farms. This episode tells a story that does not fit into slogans and PR and shows what happens when a nice vision meets reality. My guest is Daniel Máčovský, who brings new perspectives into the debate about wind turbines and represents the voice of people from regions most affected by these decisions. Are wind turbines really ecological? Can wind turbines threaten our health? What does real-world experience say about noise and infrasound? How far does noise from wind turbines travel? Do wind turbines reduce the value of surrounding real estate? Why is wind an unreliable source and how does balancing the electricity grid work? Does Slovakia have suitable weather conditions for wind farms? Which wind farms are being planned in Slovakia? What impact do wind turbines have on biodiversity? Do turbine blades contain toxic substances? How can the truth be bent in the energy sector? What drives Daniel Máčovský forward and why does he speak openly about this topic? You will find the answers to these questions in the newest TROSHCAST episode, which is available FOR FREE!
