Drone footage as first assembled turbine parts leave New Bedford 

As a fisherman in the sound, I don't think the wonderful beauty should be for sale. Mess indeed

What u worried about the boat or the hurricane barrier?

@@JAlves88 neither, I'm worried about commercial fishermen and their families,and the marine animals that will inevitably suffer from it

Suffer from what? They are built specifically out of the way

@@EmmanuelVAZQUEZ-wr6zc you are delusional if you think installing electrical components in the ocean will not affect animals that use sonar and echolocation to communicate and hunt.

Fishermen kill more dolphins and sharks and other species in their nets than turbines ever will. (and they don't care) They decimate populations by overfishing because they can't stuff enough into their pockets. They pollute oceans while out to sea where nobody is watching, their boats pollute the harbors with stinking. leaking petroleums. And they b!tch about environmental laws meant to curtail such activities. But they suddenly beat the environmental drum if anybody else dares have business in the oceans. In short they think they own the seas. It's quite gratifying watching them learn otherwise.

It's actually long known, and proven that at least 95%of a wind turbine are recyclable! Try study for yourself...

Yes of course the entire wildlife are killed by these energy producing monsters.. ☠️ Sure you're living off grid without polluting anything.. How much poison are your lifestyle responsible for? Hypocrite

Vestas have found a way to reuse the epoxy in the blades. So stop bragging.

Also, saws

20 years is almost certainly enough time to develop new recycling technologies. And we don’t have 20 years to make big progress on reducing added CO2 emissions.

Stupid

There’s already good research that painting the blades with stripes, or even a consistent dark color greatly reduces bird deaths. I can’t understand why companies keep producing white blades. When the sky is lightly overcast, the blades ‘disappear’ into the sky glare.

@@pinehawk9600 money certainly accounts for why existing wind turbines haven’t been painted, but this video was for a brand new delivery. Paint is cheap. Or, instead of incorporating the minerals that make the blades white, switch to darker minerals. That might require some testing to make sure there’s no adverse effects on durability, but would likely be less expensive than the current white.

Well, coal mining ain't too pretty either. And you won't develop black lung from a wind turbine. 😄

They are green within 1 year, educate yourself

@@hans-petervanaerschot2596 I have visited many wind farms. The maintenance and infrastructure alone uses fossil fuel power. When on land they ruin the land polluting nearby waterways by disturbing virgin ground and causing erosion. Road must be built to access them. How do those get built. I believe in saving the planet, however in a country the size of the U. S. they are a waste of time and resources. My educated opinion!!!

To make the steel required for wind turbines that might operate by 2030, you'd need fossil fuels equivalent to more than 600 million metric tons of coal. A 5-MW turbine has three roughly 60-meter-long airfoils, each weighing about 15 metric tons.Feb 29, 2016

​@samdeejr2000 well they aren't going to stop making steel. So steal for something that can generate electricity, is a very good reason for that steel.
