The wind farm will generate electricity without contributing to global warming, plus the wind used to generate the electricity is FREE - unlike coal or oil.

We have wind-powered "farms" here in CO and WYO and they work!

Granted, there is some loss of wildlife (mainly birds) and habitat - but then oil and coal development also causes MORE loss of wildlife and habitat toocomparatively speaking.

PLUS, the wind farms don't contribute to global warming - they don't emit CO2 or other gases like burning oil and coal does.]]>Jun 30th 2008 3:53AMhttp://www.switched.com/2008/06/29/offshore-wind-power-park-to-energize-delaware-homes/http://www.switched.com/2008/06/29/offshore-wind-power-park-to-energize-delaware-homes/
They are nothing but tax shelters for wealthy investors, and wouldn't exist but for the federal tax subsidy of $23.37 per mWh we taxpayers are required to contribute. Like ethanol, just another "alternative energy" boondoggle. ]]>Jun 30th 2008 8:54AM
