Besides a minuscule effect on fossil fuel emissions<ref>[[Carbon emissions]]</ref> and the high expense of extracting any meaningful energy from such a diffuse, intermittent, and variable source (particularly as other sources must still be maintained and built to balance the highly fluctuating wind infeed as well as to supply 100% backup for when the wind doesn't blow), wind turbines have many other adverse impacts. | Besides a minuscule effect on fossil fuel emissions<ref>[[Carbon emissions]]</ref> and the high expense of extracting any meaningful energy from such a diffuse, intermittent, and variable source (particularly as other sources must still be maintained and built to balance the highly fluctuating wind infeed as well as to supply 100% backup for when the wind doesn't blow),<ref>[[Electrical grid]]</ref> wind turbines have many other adverse impacts. | ||
