Germans are going nuts over wind turbines:
According to Annalena Baerbock, at least 2 percent of the entire German land area must be equipped with wind turbines in order to save the “global climate”. Meanwhile, citizens' initiatives nationwide are taking action against the harmful effects of wind turbines.

Speaking of harmful effects, what about the resulting altered energy balance?
The very existence of "wind" stems from pressure and energy imbalances in the atmosphere, and wind is the means for the reduction of those imbalances. What happens when wind turbines put a brake on the flow, converting it into electricity which ultimately is released into the environment in different ways at different locations? What effect does THAT energy redistribution have on climate change?
Folks, there is no free lunch. Don't believe these new "too cheap to meter" promises unless they're backed up with proven, credible data. So far, I've seen no such thing, have you?
