Read up on the minerals to build the turbines and where it comes from. Then read up on what happens to the blades when they are at the end of their life. Then look at the number of rare birds killed by wind turbines.
And finally what do you do for power when the wind isn’t blowing?
Also not mentioned is the amount of power generated by a fossil fuel source that is required to get it spinning and to keep it spinning. Operators in Spain a few years ago realized they could make money on the subsidies just by running them from gas without wind. As long as they were turning, they were generating money - in that case more than the cost of the fuel.
Just where will they locate these huge monstrosities? The windmills are bad for birds but many have their own feral cat communities beneath them. Food just keeps falling out of the sky.
We should require all "renewable" energy tech to be recyclable or biodegradable.
That kind of came to an end this past summer when on three different days I passed a semi tractor trailer hauling a windmill blade on the expressway from where I don't know to where I don't know. It was huge, close to a hundred feet long.........
I know they get that big but to drive along side one really hits home on their size
