I've upset a few people in the past talking about crop circles - in particular, how they're about as likely to be made by little green men as wind turbines are to be broken by them!

The Case for Bioenergy

Blog  |  bioconversion.blogspot.com | Jul 30, 2008

I am frequently asked why we should pursue the production of biofuels and biopower when we could substitute other seemingly simpler and "cleaner" alternatives - like wind and solar - that don't require such complicated biomass logistics. A recent article I found on the European-based Biopact Blog

Birds.com: Wind Turbines Won’t Harm Birds in the Fens - - Birds Blog

It seems to be a glaringly obvious concern – will the installation of additional wind farms in lowland agricultural areas in the UK cause birds to abandon the area? They are, after all, very noisy, large and full of movement.

Thumbs up to world's largest wind farm

Blog  |  www.fwi.co.uk | May 15, 2009

But for all my many and varied faults, I like to think being a NIMBY isn't one of them - so I'm really glad it's now looking like the giant wind farm 12 miles off the Kent and Essex coast will happen.
