Plus lots of nuclear power.

We took a three day trip to Walla Walla, WA a month ago. On our drive through the beautiful Palouse region of Western Idaho and Eastern Oregon, I was appalled at all the windmills despoiling the once-beautiful landscape. You used to have endless rolling hills to the horizon covered in the emerald color winter wheat. Now you see nothing but those horrid monstrosities.

The greeniacs went nuts 40 years ago for a few offshore oil platforms around Santa Barbara because they ruined the ocean views. But they are perfectly happy ruining all the views in America The Beautiful (or FORMERLY Beautiful).

The oil leaks didn’t help

Well, eastern Washington, Kansas, etc. ARE fly-over country, so....

I agree though. I drive from Seattle to eastern Washington a lot. The windmills beyond Snoqualmie Pass and elsewhere have really destroyed views that haven’t changed much in 10,000 years.
