@KharamiSunato In the UK there have been 71 fatalities & 945 serious accidents at windfarms since 1990. Risks include: Blade failure, ice throw, fire & construction. Not to mention the thousands of rare birds of prey killed every year by turbines.

All power generation schemes have their own risks and environmental impacts. It's a matter of weighing those risks & impacts against the benefits of the energy produced.

For wind it's huge cost & environmental impact for negligible energy.

@Rwecosher It's thanks to cheap fossil fuels that we enjoy a high standard of living & long life expectancy. Before cheap energy life for the poor was short & hard. As people become richer they take better care of their environment - creating national parks & preserving wild habitats - since they are no longer struggling just to survive. By contrast the wind lobby is seeking to make energy more expensive & tearing up the countryside & erecting thousands of 200m-high industrial wind turbines.

@MMGWsceptic but fossils are fucking the planet up. All anti-wind power arguments are centred around cost. If we can't cap the energy we use then why not use an in-exhaustible supply? How can that not make sense?

[MMGWsceptic]

Typical one-sided Windustry funded propaganda from the BBC. What Craven doesn't mention is the cost per KW is about 10x that of conventional power. And it's the poor energy bill payers & shivering pensioners who are forced to fund this lunacy via inflated energy bills. Furthermore a Spanish study showed every taxpayer-subsidised green-job costs 2.2 jobs in the real economy. Oh, and fossil fuels aren't 'running out'. We have enough shale gas in Blackpool alone to last 50 years.

Wind is purely clean...no one dies and Everyone lives. wow, imagine that. is sanity and safety and security worth it? In my opinion, Yes!
