My point is that the people who suddenly seem very worried that wind turbines and other renewables produce a small amount of waste don't seem to care about the fact that fossil fuels produce a huge amount of waste (in addition to the GHG emissions). Same issue as being very worried about renewables using resources (some steel, etc.) when not caring about the huge amounts of resources (especially including the fuel itself!) consumed by fossil fuels.
