Good Morning! Another nice day in my neck of the woods. We got up early, as Petra has a dentist appointment coming up. Boy, have I started something. I won´t say much on the issue again, only this much. I am with Ray - we have to use more alternative ways to generate power, but it has to be done in a sensible way. Government grants have led to an uncontrolled and silly growth, without considering the real economics and environmental impacts. Wind mills don´t kill birds by the thousands - they are smart enough to avoid them. Here lies one of the problems. Migrating birds are choosing different routes, deterred by the noise the wind mills make. Other wildlife is also on the escape. It´s not the single wind mill causing this, it´s those big "wind parks" with dozens of them. The long term impact is still unknown. Power has to be generated where it is needed - unfortunately, in Germany this is not where the wind blows. `Nuff said. Have a happy day!
