260 tons of scrap metal and if it turns all the time for the length of its life wouldn't produce as much energy as it took to make it!!

I’d rather see a coal burning power plant that supports many jobs and strengthens our countries economy!
Generations from now, these iron structures will be rusted and worthless, and they’ll be saying “What the heck were those guys thinking”.
So yea , on top of making you drowsy, it’s a terrible alternative power source.
Keep on digging coal, drilling oil and fracking for natural gas. I hate them too. But I believe they're made out of fiberglass and not steel. Just the blades. The main structure is steel, not to mention the gargantuan amount of concrete underneath.
Act like a blank, get treated like a blank. Insert your own blank!

just watch Seth M, on "Closer Look" ( 13;01 minute time) and they showed a clip of Trump saying what all has been said before...so it must be true if he said it.

In my county a company called Invenergy is trying to get the County to submit to their project of some 200 windmills. These proposed windmills will be in the area of 591 ft tall. Most all the windmills already built in Iowa are only around 260 ft tall. The our P&Z board along with the BOS in their wisdom believe the setback for 591 ft tall windmills should be the same as 260 ft tall windmills.
I was at a combined P&Z and BOS meeting where the two boards were updating the ordinances for windmills. The old ordinance was enacted in 2009 when windmills were 260 ft. tall. Both of these boards seem to think the same standards can apply to windmills twice as tall as the older ones in the county. One member of P&Z when commenting on the noise level said “according to industry standards” 50 dba is the norm. Members of the audience were not allowed to comment or I would have liked to ask this brain dead women just who does she thinks sets the “industry standard”. I submit it is probably the windmill companies.
We have a group of citizens that are fighting to get these monstrosities from being built just a few miles from the Iowa Great Lakes which is the premier vacation spot for families in the Midwest and some of the most expensive homes in Iowa.
We have some windmills in the western part of the county that I can see from 20 miles away. I can’t imagine how far away a person could see a 600 ft windmill. Some of the people living next to these old windmill now wish they had stopped them long ago.
