RE :”Wind power is already one of the worst options in the renewables market. Wind is unreliable, and the unreliability of energy production causes numerous problems for distribution. The manufacture and maintenance of the windmills requires a lot of energy, costs a lot of money, and creates a lot of waste, although perhaps not as much as Solyndra left behind. The blades kill hundreds of thousands of birds a year already, and any expansion will make that destruction much worse.

Of course, the rise in temperature might be beneficial. No one has shown that even if a warming period occurs naturally or artificially that the overall impact will be relentlessly negative. At one time, most of Greenland was used for farming and habitation, a period that lasted a few centuries until global cooling eventually covered most of it in ice. However, if the wind-farm advocates argue that warming is good for the environment, it negates the stated need to build expensive and inefficient wind farms in the first place”

Politics trumps the laws of physics ping!

Under GWB my Republican neighbors used to preach to me about the benefits of windmills. Not knowing anything allowed them to imagine an untapped source of unlimited free energy for us that would make all our lives better. Who wouldnt want that ? Look how ethanol worked out. I noticed there were no windmills on his property.
He is less trusting with Obama as POTUS, fortunately.

A sucker is born every minute and then he votes.

Trump is mighty pissed that Scotland is building Wind turbines within seeing range of his new gold course. I think he’s entirely correct, they wanted him to build it and now they’re ruining the view. But’s still it’s funny to see him get screwed over by the slimy Scottish separatist leader who was once his buddy.

I used to work for the company that owns most of the windmills at the wind farm in the Palm Springs area. It was owned by the Dutch Government. Our tax dollars to support them. They ruin the view and don’t produce enough energy to make them really worthwile. It is a total scam.

I HATE wind farms. A herd of cows, a exaltation of larks, a pride of lions...mine for windmills is...

A BLIGHT of Windmills.
