    "WIND TURBINES - The UK quietly disposes of around 60,000 tonnes of wind turbine blades, per year!

    Expected to hit 100,000 tonnes by 2030.

    Each made of non-biodegradable composites and toxic resins.

    Most are buried in UK landfills, far from public view.
    Others are shipped abroad, offloading our waste onto someone else.
    There’s no public list of where these blades are buried. No transparency on how many are exported.
    Just silence.
    Our turbine graveyards are growing, they just don’t want you to know it."
