What’s the service-life on a wind turbine blade? Can’t be long enough for something that can’t be recycled.
Looks like good border fencing material to me.
Quick research reveals that a full wind turbine unit is supposed to last ~25 years, with gear boxes and blades needing replacement after ~10 years.
I wonder if there’s a way to build the much-needed wall at our southern border using these.
(But only until “wind energy” gets its well-deserved black eye so thoroughly that construction of new wind turbines totally dies off.)

They can be recycled. This article is about one town’s frustration that a recycler is delaying for an unknown reason.
The article actually says they are being recycled.
I don’t know who put out this “can’t be recycled” garbage, but it’s wrong. There are processes that convert plastics back into combustible gasoline.
