In July 2021, a small group from Norway calling themselves “The Turbine Group” (TTG) released a self-published report that falsely claims that wind turbine blades are shedding dangerous amounts of microplastics and bisphenol A (BPA). This report has not been peer-reviewed or published in any academic journals, so it has not been examined by experts in the field of study, which is common practice in science literature. The report has led to false stories in local and international media outlets, resulting in increased concern among residents who are seeking information on living near wind turbines.
