Fighting climate change causes climate change

Wind farms can cause climate change, finds new study - Telegraph

Sorry, Louise, but global warming is caused by me, and my Jewish friends. After a heavy day secretly ruling the world, as we relax over some barbecued polar bears, we point special heat guns at the sky and deliberately warm the planet - just to terrify a lot of pampered and poorly-educated geeks all across the western world.

We stopped 12 years ago, by the way. Thought you'd all have noticed by now. Muppets.

IMO the biggest issue with turbines is what happens if the wind does not blow. you have to have conventional power generators ready.

That's the second biggest problem. The sight of them everywhere in what is supposed to be nature's countryside is the biggest problem.

Unemployed people on lots of bicycles as backup to turn the turbine when the wind is not blowing?

With current level of unemployment and high energy prices this could keep them fit and also earn the money ...

Just an idea.

Do you think that there was this much whining about the windmills that used to grind our flour? I think the windmills look better than a dozen or more solar panel on a pan tile roof but there you go.

They were making essential food, whoever whined about it just had to stay hungry

How many flour mills are/were there?

In the flourmill age, when you look up at the moors, did you see something like this?

Where are those farms? Are they actually built on UK soil or are they just photoshopped? The most props I have seen in a single farm is near the A14 in Northampton. (no more than 10) We have a single turbine on the mendips it looks quite nice.

Those photos are ugly but Im sure thats the NIMBY point of them.
