Gone with the wind

The rich may be moaning about wind turbines ruining their coastal views on Cape Cod, but in Delaware, citizens are ardently battling politicians -- and the coal industry -- to build the nation's largest offshore wind park.

Wind Power not covering the whole of our energy needs.

One of the things that gets to me about the whole energy mess in this country is the atitude that for an energy source to be worthwhile it needs to solve the entire problem.

Wind should be a part of the whole mix of energy sources. We should use solar, wind, tides, and anything else that can help reduce the reliance on just one source, especially if that energy source will also help with global warming.

And to those that have issues with the aesthetic damage of windfarms: get over it. I bet the coast will be really pretty when it is all underwater. Polishing the china in the Titanic is not going to stop it from sinking.
