Scotland cut down 14 million trees for wind farms, while the UK spends £22 billion on carbon capture machines—the same function trees provide for free.

Scotland’s decision to chop down nearly 14 million trees to make way for wind farms is nothing short of environmental hypocrisy.

Scotland’s decision to chop down nearly 14 million trees to make way for wind farms is nothing short of environmental hypocrisy. Trees, nature’s perfect carbon-capturing machines, have been sacrificed for the illusion of green energy. The Scottish government proudly touts its goal of generating 100% renewable electricity, yet it conveniently overlooks the devastating impact this has had on the forests that naturally reduce carbon for free. How can a country claim to be environmentally conscious while destroying the very ecosystems that sustain the planet?

The irony deepens as the UK government pledges £22 billion to develop carbon capture and storage (CCUS) projects. These expensive machines are designed to do exactly what trees already do—trap carbon. Instead of preserving forests, which have been a reliable and efficient carbon sink for centuries, the government is now funneling billions into artificial solutions, while deforestation continues in the name of renewable energy. This shortsighted approach to environmental policy reflects a lack of balance between green energy ambitions and sustainable forest management.

The promise of jobs and private investment from these CCUS projects does little to justify the destruction of Scotland’s forests. While the government pats itself on the back for making strides toward net zero by 2050, it seems to have forgotten that maintaining natural carbon sinks like forests is just as crucial as developing technological solutions. The push for renewable energy should not come at the cost of our natural resources, and the decision to axe millions of trees to make way for wind farms reeks of environmental negligence disguised as progress.

In the Art of Liberty Foundation’s book: “Government” – The Biggest Scam in History… Exposed!  We break down how “Government” is best thought of as a technique for robbing and controlling populations.  The book also exposes how an inter-generational organized crime system has been controlling the information the population receives about the legitimacy, necessity and desirability about “government” using mandatory “government” schools, scouting, Explorers, JROTC, ROTC, police and military training, monopoly media, propaganda woven into Hollywood films and television shows, and the algorithmic censorship of the internet. 

The indoctrination and propaganda have been so successful that many people have never been exposed to the alternative to top-down “government” control. 

They falsely believe that voting in rigged elections for the lesser evil is their only choice.

On November 1^st-3^rd, The Art of Liberty Foundation will be hosting Liberty on the Rocks – Sedona – The Voluntaryism Conference.

Discover the option that is NEVER offered or discussed by the MainStreamMedia or the MainStream Alternative Media: REAL FREEDOM! 

We don’t really need “Government!” 

All the legitimate services provided by monopoly “government” would be better provided by the free market, mutual aid societies, armed protective service companies, arbitration providers, insurance companies, and genuine charities.

Without the government’s mandatory inflationary money and confiscatory taxation, the economy would prosper and the population would be much wealthier and better able to help the poor, needy and disadvantaged.

Come join some of the country’s leading economists, legal experts and political philosophers discuss how the world could have more harmony and prosperity without “government”
