The environment is damaged when wind farms are built
- Wind farms need to use concrete to make sure they stand upright, but compare this with the amount needed to build a power station or the thousands of years of waste left by nuclear fuel.
- The average windfarm in the UK will pay back the energy used to build it within 3-5 months.
- Wind farms and other renewables leave behind no pollution or deadly waste for future generations to deal with.
- Wind farms help reduce, rather than contribute to, global warming.
