How were those windmills built?

No fossil fuels used in forging the metal?

How do the maintenance crews get there when they need repairs?

What kind of vehicles?

What does one windmill cost, and how many years does it take to pay off that cost?

I read somewhere (please do not ask me for links, use your own favorite search engine) that more people workers have been killed by wind turbine tower construction & maintenance than any other power source, due to towers which are 80’ to 140’ height. That is the height of a 10 to 17 story building.

And don’t even ask how many millions of birds are killed by wind turbines.
