Wind Energy

The perfect solution

The perfect solution

Given the alternatives and their potential for disaster, I chose wind. Wind turbines will never melt down, flood a town with toxic chemicals, cause climate change, or send our sons and daughters over seas. They are majestic and stand for solidarity. They are a great dual purpose land use for farmers and I have stood beneath one of these running full tilt, and I couldn’t hear it at all. I could hear the airplane flying above but I couldn’t hear the turbine.

    COOL STORY BRO. I GUESS YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THE VIDEO OF THE RUNAWAY WIND TURBINE, OR HEARD THE STORY OF THE TURBINE IN OREGON THAT COLLAPSED KILLING THE TWO TECHNICIANS INSIDE OF IT.

    NO CURRENT ENERGY SOURCE IS PERFECT

      I guess you haven’t heard the one about the oil spill killing thousands of animals…and people’s livelihood. I am willing to bet you $20 that at least 200 people die getting oil for every 1 that dies getting wind power. Prove me wrong and I will cut you a check. Nothing is perfect, but wind is as close to perfect as possible.

      Also, stop yelling and use your indoor voice. We’re all adults here.
