I have been involved in the enjoyable game of blogging for a considerable time now, during which, for most of the time, renewable energy has been my theme.I have made it clear that I back the introduction of wind farms as an acceptable provider of this countrys electrical requirements.
This is ok, but there comes ,I believe, a point where I must commit myself to making clear my feelings as regards such a project in a personal context. And this means purely;how would I feel with a wind farm at my back door.
First of all, I must point out that I live on a small island that could possibly only tolerate a limitated number of turbines without getting swamped. It, therefore cannot be compared with a vast area of country side.
But with due consideration to the above I would not hesitte to assert that I would consider it quite acceptable to have,in close proximity, at least a few "slender giants" providing the much required power with an aim towards a clean atmosphere.
