Wind farms get chilly reception
Scottish power is to build two new huge wind farms in Scotland that will
generate 360MW of power, enough to power almost 200,000 homes.
This is great news, and the environmental lobby needs to realise they can't have it all their own way. The turbines aren't that ugly! The wind farm in
california on the Altamount pass on Interstate 580 attracts photographers
from all over and generates much needed power for California and its CLEAN!
The downside is Blairs goal to tax these farms the same way he taxes 'dirty' green house polluters.
