<center>https://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/08/24/wind-turbines1766141.jpg</center> Don't you feel like running in the meadow signing "the hills are alive with the sound of music" when you see this picture? If so...you've probably been brainwashed. # During a normal Tuesday morning.... Here I was watching a bit of TV...when a GreenPeace activist was talking about how we should be the world leaders when it comes to windmill energy. The panel who listened to him talk all seemed to be in agreement, nodding their heads as a sign of approval. They all seemed to think that it would be a "good thing" and that we should really consider asking the government "to do more" to stimulate that section of the economy. **Here in Quebec,Canada it's a national sport: ask the government to do stuff.** Now, in Quebecistan, we love monopolies...I can't give you the whole list but it goes from energy, to games, alcohol and even maple syrup. And since, especially in the case of a government monopoly (in the energy sector), they are terrible at making a cost/benefit analysis I have to assume they think its a good idea too. It's also a great way to get some votes. When the average person think "windmill" they think of those cute commercial of how the "world of tomorrow" is full of those beautiful white thing rotating at a distance. Politicians love to talk about "clean energy" and "green energy". So they ride the bandwagon and no one ask the real hard questions. # Not All Energies Are Created Equal Here is a rhetorical question for you. Would you plug the pacemaker of your grandma on a wind turbine? Of course not. It seems simplistic but it is here to point out that "not all energies are created equal". **For a source of energy to be sustainable and of good quality for consumption his has to:** 1- Be easy to scale during peak hours of consumption 2- Reliable 3- Easy to store 4- Be safe to use 5- Have a large quantity of the resource in order to sustain consumption It just so happen that we have the PERFECT source of energy right here in our own province and we've been using it for decades...Hydro-Electricity. Its easy to scale at peak hours...only open the spigots in periods of high demand. The water is plentiful, it's reliable, its safe to use and the very idea of an hydro-electric power plant is storage of water. Check out the potential we've got in Quebec for Hydro power: https://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/08/24/LeafMap58436.jpg But for some strange reason, there are huge public outcries when it comes to touching a river they will personally never see themselves. I have yet to figure out what's going on in people's head... # Wind turbines are ugly, dangerous for the environment and the health of people and animals The biggest problem with wind turbine energy is that it's highly unpredictable, impossible to scale on demand and when you factor the cost of maintenance from cradle to grave...the ridicule of the project is obvious. It would be impossible for this energy to compete with other available alternatives on the free market. But that's not all...**they are ugly, bad for the health of humans and animals.** I was visiting Ohio where a small community is fighting again a huge wind turbine project that would literally destroy the natural beauty of the area. When people think of windmill, people think of those small things in a distance that kinda look cute in picturesque progressive Norway or something. Let me tell you, the size of this thing is EPIC. Here is what they look to scale (the one on the left is the size they have on the project I believe) <center>https://www.steemimg.com/images/2016/08/24/windmillf79da.jpg</center> Imagine your house surrounded by 15 to 20 skyscaper like this. I feel for those people. Not only those things are ugly mammoths, they also have an environmental impact. Bats, for example, literally have their inner collapse on themselves because of the change of pressure. [Learn more here](http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/wind-farms-causing-thousands-of-bats-to-die-of-collapsed-lungs-annually-in-alberta-top-bat-expert). Bats are vital to rural area to get rid of pests...the cost of pesticides, both economically and environmentally would go through the roof if you collapse the bat population of the area. Humans also have issues when we are around them [Read Wind Turbine Syndrome: A Twenty-Minute Crash Course](http://www.windturbinesyndrome.com/2012/wind-turbine-syndrome-a-twenty-minute-crash-course/?var=wts) # Conclusion To me, wind turbines farms are a dumb idea that make people feel good. It may be interesting in some applications but we should let the market decide which energy succeed at serving the consumer...especially the one who can't afford an increase in the price of energy.

Don't forget about low frequency vibration from wind turbines :) When all dogs around will be crazy, cats also hate it. And your window glass start singing and shaking.

I didn't even know wind turbines could be so huge. I think that adding a small wind turbine to every car would be much more beneficial. Car already produces drag when driving. Combine that with a small steam engine that could theoretically use the heat from the engine and you get yourself a very energy efficient piece of metal (:

I'm not sure what I'm say now something new, but more interesting using piezoelectric elements while road building. For produce and collect electricity from a road vibration and running car pressure.

While that would be great, it would require the reconstruction of our entire infrastructure.

Hydroelectric has major impacts on river ecology which in turn effect all life. check out this link: https://www.internationalrivers.org/environmental-impacts-of-dams There are pros and cons to everything. Clearly wind turbines have their limits and drawbacks. Just saying that Hydroelectric isn't necessarily a better alternative.

everything we do have environmental impact..even breathing. When we built dams thousands of KM away from anyone who may be experience bad effect should we sweat over a few fish and some change in the soil?

You will be surprised at the chain effect it will spark on the ecosystem and how it affects us because we also eat the same fish. And don't forget that soil quality will affect the ground water supply. Comment is coming from someone with a **Master degree in environmental management** :-) You gotta believe...

I was visiting canuckistan earlier this summer and was surprised to see the amount of wind turbines near Lake Huron in Ontario. Definitely a lot larger in person than I would have thought they would be.

i'm not an engineer not an energy expert. I have seen a few huge ones and read about wind farms building into the sea. Recently, right hear in steemit, I read a post and search for it again to share here: https://steemit.com/minnowsunite/@doitvoluntarily/man-made-wind-trees-that-could-power-your-home this is not my post but I thought this wind tree may be interesting development. just my $0.02 worth. :-)

Nice post. Even without delving into their dangers, in my opinion, they ruin the tranquility of any landscape that I've seen them in.

I agree and I heard out countrymen say, about their health issues that believe to be caused by wind turbines such as human reproductive system, headache, dizziness, etc. I seriously think it is overvalued...

I'm a huge fan of renewable energy, but I have never liked windmills for the reasons you cited in your article. I think solar makes a lot more sense than windmills.

theyre also a distraction. theres an enormous damn field of these things on the way to LA, like right by the interstate., and they make it hard as hell to focus on the road... the movement just pulls your eye.

Well, you would think that if you have no idea what you're talking about. Energy generated by wind can be stored in pumped hydroelectric to cover shortfalls while storing overproduction. I mean, we'll see what's ugly when all the plant life and animal life is suffering from acid rain and pollution. Also, linking to an article from a crank about supposed "Wind Turbine Syndrome" that has no references and thus is a primary source, when there are better sources, secondary sources, showing this "syndrome" doesn't exist, does you no credit. http://canwea.ca/pdf/talkwind/Wind_Turbine_Sound_and_Health_Effects.pdf >1. Sound from wind turbines does not pose a risk of hearing loss or any other adverse health effect in humans. >2. Subaudible, low frequency sound and infrasound from wind turbines do not present a risk to human health. >3. Some people may be annoyed at the presence of sound from wind turbines. Annoyance is not a pathological entity. >4. A major cause of concern about wind turbine sound is its fluctuating nature. Some may find this sound annoying, a reaction that depends primarily on personal characteristics as opposed to the intensity of the sound level. http://journals.lww.com/joem/Abstract/2014/11000/Wind_Turbines_and_Health__A_Critical_Review_of_the.9.aspx >Results: (1) Infrasound sound near wind turbines does not exceed audibility thresholds. (2) Epidemiological studies have shown associations between living near wind turbines and annoyance. (3) Infrasound and low-frequency sound do not present unique health risks. (4) Annoyance seems more strongly related to individual characteristics than noise from turbines.
