Offshore wind farm construction | Moray East Scotland’s largest wind farm 

After you work in their you would have a quite different opinion

Blades cannot be recycled, full of toxic glues etc. The huge amounts of balsa comes from the rain forests. It all ends up in landfill. The enormous amount of concrete and steel is left in the ground. A wind turbine can never save as much carbon as it takes to make it. Today, the UK demand is 38GW, quite low. The output from the entire UK wind industry is 1GW. Explain how this is a/ usefull, b/ viable.

@@anglosaxonmike8325 the entire uk has 1 MW of Wind power? R u sleeping? Only scotland has 1.9 GW capacity which they r determined to increase to 11 GigaWatt. Go 1st check the truthfulness in ur Opinion, otherwise nobody is going to believe u .oneday.

@@anglosaxonmike8325 Ecuador supplies 70% or more of commercial balsa. In recent years, about 60% of the balsa has been plantation-grown in densely packed patches of around 1000 trees per hectare (compared to about two to three per hectare in nature). The trees are harvested after six to ten years of growth in Ecuador.

@@catimaldey7485 nope

What for? Blades cannot be recycled, full of toxic glues etc. The huge amounts of balsa comes from the rain forests. It all ends up in landfill.

Your certainly a misinformed believer

You need help.

95% of wind turbines are recyclable. Blades are soon recyclable, as well. How come you forgot telling us about the ongoing impact from Exxon Valdez, Deepwater Horizon and the other 130 oil-spill related disasters?

@@OmmerSyssel you lie. The blades end up in landfill, thay are full of toxic glues. Why don't you tell us that during the winter calm and cold periods, wind turbines produce nothing at all.

What about all the people who die because of coal mining, burning coal, and natural gas? All of the fish that die because a coal ash pond overflows into a creek? Blades are being recycled into among other things sky equipment, snowboards, and many other things. They can also be ground up and used in concrete roadways, reducing the amount of steel required to maintain the roadway crack free. The amount of electricity produced in one year with a wind turbine is much more than the amount of electricity used to produce the wind turbine, all the concrete, and steel used to make the wind turbine tower.

@@OmmerSyssel never argue with the Fool , he belongs to the Coal industry 😝🤪😜😗😆😀😃😅🤣👎

If you can do away with electricity the world would be a little bit better tomorrow, can't you?
