Wonder how many thousands of gallons of diesel fuel will be used by the disassembly crane, tractor trailer for transport, excavators, dump trucks, bulldozers, spreaders and other heavy equipment will be used to bury these blades?

I saw a photo the other day of a wind turbine blade being sprayed with deicing fluid from a helicopter.

Sustainable. Hah

Absolutely, aside from the production print, no one ever realizes the huge carbon footprint of the support and disposal of these concepts.
