So true. I commented a few years back that the so called solar farms and wind farms are two of the worst eyesores yet created by humans. Visual pollution. And that's just the beginning of the problems these "farms" create, as you discuss further.
I recall when the green kooks went apoplectic over the ruined ocean view from a handful of offshore oil platforms in Southern California. How their tune has change!
It’ll get worse when there are a million offshore wind turbines. Will they ever let out a peep about that visual pollution?
