Going ’round about windmills

www.southbendtribune.com 5 October 2011

Wind farms are popping up all over the country. It’s an epidemic! No, it’s just the federal government forcing energy companies to “go green” while providing subsidies for these unsustainable energy sources. These 45-story wind turbines are the energy companies’ quick answer to the federal government mandate.

We are just finding out how unhealthy they are to animals and humans. We can see how they will ruin the beauty of our environment. We know the companies abandon them when subsidies dry up. Marshall County’s Board of Zoning Appeals should protect us from these dangers.
