In recent times much has been said about Climate Change and Global Warming, and all that is attached to these natural problems.
Wind Farms were at one point considered to be the final solution to the enviornmental difficulties of pollution which endangers us now, and also into the future.
As regards Wind Farms, there was an alarming hue and cry:They were too expensive they said; too much noise...; an eyesore said others; a tourist deterrent and destructive to nature,especially birds. And the last being the harm which causes me personally most concern, if true.
Maybe it is also true that if turbines were properly situated, this danger could be to a large extent avoided.
Not so long ago we looked on Wave Power as being a good subsitute for Wind Power. But then,it was at a fairly early stage of development. The headlines tell us now,that its future potential has progressed considerably.
Though this form of power was at first mainly a Scottish initative; it looks now as if foreign enterprise may be in for the final credit.
Is it then possible that the excessive erecting of Wind Farms might lessen. This being the case, surely the sceptics will remain silent.

i wonder how long it will take for the earth to get back to safe levels. Also i fear its to far for the people of this generation to do anything as more and more toxicins are placed into the earth atmosphere
