@[email protected] it's interesting to compare that to the pollution footprint from fossil plants as well. Especially where fracking is used you often get a disturbingly large plume of unhealthy air and groundwater. But just the "soot zone" (now hopefully metaphorical rather than literal) around and downwind of generators surprises many people by its size and impact.

@moz

@mattblaze
Around Palm Springs CA there are a lot of turbines. They do dominate the landscape but then again so does the interstate and all the buildings.

@Asbestos @moz I find it interesting that people are reacting to my photo by getting weirdly defensive about wind farms.

I wasn't trying them and didn't think your post was attacking them. Just sort of a general observation. But I see your point
