An interim report revealed that homeowners could be being misled by
the official figures for wind speeds because they are consistently
overestimating how much wind there is - sometimes finding that real
speeds are only one third of those forecast. In the worst case
scenario, the figures indicate that it would take more than 15 years
to generate enough 'clean' energy to compensate for the manufacture of
the turbine in the first place":

That'll be because the vast majority of things designed to combat the
'excessive use of natural resources' and to challenge the 'deadly threat of
global warming' are, in fact, a complete load of old ********.


Yes.
We could no more reverse any change in the climate, however miniscule, than
we could put out a volcano by getting a small boy to **** on it, and a fan
and an alternator onna stick from B&Q would be even less effective.


Well we CAN reverse the climate, but not using a load of CFLs and widnmills.
