    Wind Farms

    What is the point of them?

    Stupid we are forced to buy their over priced power, we should pull out of that agreement as it is costing us money we can't afford.

    Plus they kill birds and look awful.

    I think they look fantastic. But the rest of your post is accurate.

    Out at sea maybe but not on hillsides, can't see why any area would accept them, they don't create power, don't create jobs (well not in this country) - utterly pointless.

    Me too. I love driving through Northern France watching each new white tower appear on the horizon.

    But they just don't work and are not cost effective. Green loonies are costing normal folk money.

    Don't work?!
    As for cost effective, sure they are not as cost effective as burning oil and/or coal. But then again, how costly is that we destroy the environment by burning all the fossil fuel available just because it's cheaper?!
    Green energy is more expensive, everyone knows it, it is only the irresponsible and the cheapo who complain though.
