  3. The building you live in can burn and cause environmental damage! I say wind energy over nuclear any day.

  6. At least when they fail it doesn’t destroy the entire local environment.

  18. I heard these are $1.4M per turbine. Guess who foots the bill to build a new one?

  19. Hmm, it’s possible but I would think that the blades would be at a height not to be in the way of work vehicle’s, IMHO. As for the rest of your statement ? I just made up the slide show with picture’s I had, I do not claim to be knowledgeable of the working’s of the turbine, just thought the show was cool! 😉

  20. The truck in the last slide clearly drove into the blade as the roof of the truck is still intact and buckled upwards.

    I’m pretty sure that there is transmission fluid that can handle the pressure of a wind turbine gearbox. It is roughly the same design as a turbo prop airplane engine except it is being driven by the wind and not by internal combustion (Which would produce more pressure)
