TUKI INDUSTRIAL WIND FARM
Wind ‘farms’ are implemented
in the name of environmental
care, but people need to do
more research into their viability and efficiency. Too much
faith is being put into their ability to substantially reduce
greenhouse gas emissions. We strongly believe that the dubious
benefits of wind turbines at Smeaton are |
far outweighed by
the negative effects of their installation. Let’s think bigger
about how we can clean up our environment, and more importantly,
how we choose to live and use energy. We all know the damage
caused
by quick solutions to complex
problems. Remember the cane
toad and the carp... |
Let’s not make more
mistakes for our children to clean up. In 20 years time these
dysfunctional, obsolete, 144 metre-high skyscrapers set in over
600 tonnes of cement will remain on our landscape forever more. |
