RE: Wind Power?
Wind has a demonstratable negative effect on the environment; both from the construction aspect, as well as post construction issues.
Here is one source listing issues. I first ran into this issue, however, with a study on Wind Turbines in California and the issues with raptor populations and rat infestations in an article here, and the article actually advocates nuclear and hydroelectric power.
A crowd of people showed up to voice opposition to putting wind turbines in MD state parks in the Western side of the state. Strangely, there were no environmentalists at the first meeting. Perhaps at the second meeting on Jan 31, 2008?
