I Agree, But What About?
I agree with Ms. Gray pointing out the alternative of thorium. However, her reference to world population brings me to three of my favorite alternatives to wasting money on useless wind turbines. First, investment in smarter ways to use existing energy and conserve far more than we do, world-wide. The $4 million average cost of a single industrial trubine can purchase and install a huge number of energy saving sensors, switches,computer programs to save energy. Second, there can be no talk about global climate change without talk of serious, cost-effective world population control. Third, more carbon can be sequestered and water conserved by re-vegetating the world by planting trees and regional appropriate vegetation than miles upon miles of useless wind turbines.

Shill
From Merriam-Webster: Shill:"to act as a spokesperson or promoter". You, Mr. Woodbury, are a shill. Ms. Barnett is a victim who is fighting for her rights and the rights of her neighbors to not have their health and well being injured by the noise impact of an industrial site being built on top of them.

Right from the Windustry
What you see as "facts" are highly disputed and come right out of the Windustry play book. There is absolutely NO sound scientific basis or economic viability to the wind folly and the windustry is predatory to our beautiful state.
