I haven’t been in the presence of wind turbines that often, just a couple times last year when I was snowmobiling in New York state. I live in a fairly suburban area where it’s unlikely that these somewhat eerie, ethereal structures could be sited. So, I’m frankly not acquainted with the political arguments for and against their existence.
The video I’ve embedded here actually features residents from Cohocton, New York, talking about the impact of a wind farm on their communities. It’s mostly the pros, because the video was produced by the company behind the farm, First Wind, but it’s a good educational bit if your community is mulling a wind development project.
