RESIDENTS OF OCOTILLO AND BOULEVARD SPEAK OUT, SHARE SAFETY FEARS AFTER TURBINE BLADE FALLS

339. Thanks, you are correct. I've been reading this thread with amusement watching the ignorance about

Wind Turbines and the Oil Industry. You said it very well. A whole lot of people in this thread appear to be way behind on what has been going on with Wind Turbines.

Here where we are eg, I was surprised and happy at first when I saw the Wind Farms, surprised because this is a pretty Conservative area. But it wasn't long before I learned that the Oil Corps are controlling these farms and making it very expensive while getting laws passed to restrict ordinary people from building their own windmills, regulating height etc.

Re any threat from them other than that, if as the OP said upthread, Monsanto's Roundup is being used around them, that would be a huge threat but no surprise to see giant Corps joining forces to profit from the inevitable development of alternative energy.

Too bad the usual suspects jumped into the thread and derailed it before any serious discussion could take place. But they reveal that there is huge ignorance surrounding this issue, at least now we know.
