Wind Farms
Again from
Blogmonkey.
I'm 100% behind windfarms. I actually find them somewhat majestic, and rather than blighting the area, add a lovely dynamic to what is still a beautiful view, and the sound they make if you get reasonably close to them is absolutely ace.
David Bellamy has been a strong opponent for 10 years, one reason being their impact on birds and other flying beasties that don't spot them, but he also argues that they are viewable for a distance of 10km. Um, know I've heard the phrase "blind as a bat", but "blind as a bird"? Nope, doesn't ring a bell.
Check out the
myths page if you are unsure....
Cor what a "fair and balanced" post that was.
Edit: Anyone want to take a guess how long it will be before Mr Bellamy adopts
this line?
