And when those windmills slow the earth's rotation, eventually tidal locking the Earth on one side, where will your precious environment be then, hmm??

(what I imagine a typical Texan must be thinking)

Texas has the most installed wind power capacity of any US state.

Many days the grid runs 100% off of wind energy.

And on the days when there isn’t enough wind, ERCOT sends out mobile phone alerts threatening us with rolling blackouts if we don’t adjust our air conditioners.

Well of course! No one would be worried, if it was just one windmill!

[theultdev]

Who do you think allows all those windmills in their pastures?

Never heard anyone complaining other than once about a company trying to not pay out for energy produced.

>where will your precious environment be then, hmm??

As a Texan I feel compelled to answer this question. You will find the environment right out there where the front fell off.

Yeah, that's not very typical, I'd like to make that point.
