I've done a bit of tilting at windmills myself.
But that's another story.

I'm not a Luddite, I'm not in the pay of BIG OIL or the fossil fuel industry.
I'm a Greenie, I'm all for protecting our planet and not shitting in our own nest.
It's a proven fact that C02 levels have been rising since the start of the industrial revolution and that the rise is on an exponential upswing.

There might be some room for argument that the link between this and global warming is a complicated equation and not 100% proven but it would be sensible to reduce our use of fossil fuels to avoid the strong possibility of runaway global warming.

HOWEVER....
The claims of Green Energy Purveyors should be subject to rigorous analysis .... in order to make money from investors and taxpayers some of them have been known to be economical with the truth.

Wind power SOUNDS like a good idea.
It should be possible to discuss the downside of them and have a rational debate about the cost/benefit without being yelled at :)
