Nope, not kidding. The value of wind turbine electricity is negligible, except for the tax breaks and other public subsidies for international wind corporations (GE, Iberdrola, Gamesa, Airtricity, Shell Oil, BP Oil, etc) and their investors. Wind turbines are a feel-good scam on the public that causes massive deforestation, destruction of wildlife habitats, and degradation of watersheds without countervailing value to the climate, the supply of energy, the economy, or the environment.

Not only that, but subsidizing wind farms is an unproductive drain on taxpayer revenue. As if this isn't enough, it also increases prices of electricity to consumers. Now you tell me, who's kidding whom.

Unfortunately, you're yet another misinformed moron. Offshore wind farms in Denmark and Germany are paying for themselves with the energy produce in a matter of years. Show me a nuclear or coal power station that could boast the same - they are black holes for billions of tax-payer dollars.

He forgets one other destructive force caused by wind power generation. In a wind farm, the laws of physics dictate that the kinetic energy supplied by the wind is translated to the blades. Wind farms actually cause the wind itself to slow down. Nature intended wind to blow at a certain speed, and if we slow it down or stop it altogether, birds will not soar, crops will not pollenate, and algae will not be able to move about oceans and lakes for wildlife to eat.

We're speeding up the wind by felling so many trees... Compared to that the slowing down by wind power generation is negligible. It can hardly compensate.

trust me on this one, the wind will not stop blowing- the jet streams are constantly moving at 200+ mph pushing the lower winds and weather below it-- dont worry birds will still fly

Thats exactly what the frogs do. If you visit paris you'll see for yourself.

Missing the point everyone. It does not warrant abuse nor is it recruiting political or environmental protagonists...it's just a beautiful film, that is all.
