Global Warming on Free Republic

Denmark, the world’s most wind-intensive nation, with more than 6,000 turbines generating 19% of its electricity, has yet to close a single fossil-fuel plant. It requires 50% more coal-generated electricity to cover wind power’s unpredictability, and pollution and carbon dioxide emissions have risen (by 36% in 2006 alone).
Ah, yes, the best intentions of idiot liberals (Progressives), I truly hate liberals, I can't tell you how much....
I know this will sound radical, but why not build giant wind generators to blow air through the wind turbines when they aren’t turning? Problem solved.
I knew there was someone else as intelligent as I am!!!!!!I always figured that the perfect electric car would have a large battery, you would charge it up just once and be able to drive it virtually forever because you would have 4 alternators, each driven by one of the wheels which would keep the battery charged indefinitely!!!brilliant, right and if not, why not (I know the answer)
Personally, I have no problem with wind and solar power being part of the generation solution. There is every indication that with a little development they could both be significant players, LOCALLY. You are right though, they are never going to solve all of our energy generation problems.
Wind Power has hidden dangers you don’t know about and hasn’t been reported about.
