@xianc78 I wonder how long it has to run in an average wind field to make up the amount of coal and oil that went into it.

@djsumdog I heard that these don't even last long. It probably doesn't even last long enough to make up for it.

I don't believe in man made climate change but if people really want to cut on fossil fuels, they should just man up and use nuclear.

@xianc78 I agree with you on man made climate change. Most of the laws to reduce CO2 increase it (Carbon taxes in Australia caused Australia to ship raw iron to China instead of refining it; using more fuel to ship it there and back).

..and there are wind turbine graveyards. They're made of a lot of composites that can't be recycled economically.
@djsumdog @xianc78 Not to mention, have you seen the huge trucks and convoys of escort vehicles transporting the parts down the highway? I doubt those things are electric.
