equivalent to a strip mine
Worse! Strip mines will be returned to a natural habitat after they are mined out. Windmills may very well be a blight on the environment for decades.
Strip mines actually produce a product for sale at a reasonable price. I’ll take a coal bearing strip mine to a bunch of windmills any day any time.
Strip mines are capable of efficiencies that can be measured above 30 percent. Windmills are limited to 30 percent or less by the very nature of wind.
You are absolutely right. At least eventually nature will do her thing and correct any damage done.
wait til we start getting the pics of rusting broken down windmills.
As with all Enviro’s they never think about the future. Maintence and repairs? What’s THAT?
It is the poster child for their hypocracy. They have NEVER cared about the “natural” world. The frog and squirrels were used as a tool to attack Americans freedom and to take their land.
