Vestas has constructed 18% of the world's operating wind turbines. You can read about it here:
And according to this report, they soon will be building the world's largest wind turbine in Denmark:
What do such turbines do? Solar energy causes atmospheric kinetic energy, which the turbines convert into electric energy. The electric energy and all the entropy in the associated processes ultimely becomes thermal energy which heats up our atmosphere. So in the long run, they decrease the planet's albedo.
No energy is created or destroyed in the process, and the end result is that the planet heats up more than it would WITHOUT the wind turbines.
How, if at all, does THAT fit into the plan to combat "global warming"?
