This made me laugh quite a lot :)
A "dark day" for people who hate renewable energy, where turbines that they won't even be able to see are going to be living rent free in their heads!🤣
Nice one, Labour 😊

My biggest gripe about any wind turbines is the turbines just don't last that long.
We have miles of them out in the desert and at least half are not operational. Now imagine how difficult it would be to repair out at sea, when they can't keep up with the maintenance on land.🤷🏻♂

@wishforthenight your neighbor France is working on a real solution. So is the USA yet problems from the Trump administration are likely.
Fusion plants.

@wishforthenight Here is what is in the works right now in the USA. This is not hype. Google has already bought 200 megawatts of power. Yet won't go online until 2030.

They kill a lot, and I mean a lot, of bird, as well as, the noise from them cause lots of problems for whales etc

@ididntknow No they don't. Nowhere as near as many as birds and other wildlife dying from pollution caused by power plants, and that's before you mention the world's number one killer of birds BY FAR: cats.
Also, nope, turbines do not cause problems for whales. Do you know what the number one cause of death for whales is? Boat strikes. Which is ironic, because at least 70% of all boat traffic is concerned with the transport of coal, oil and LNG.
Try again.

Why don't they just put them on top of the oil platforms? Win/win...
