Subject: RE: BS: anti-poverty and wind energy
I'm not sure of the area where you live, mg, but in the Pacific Northwest there are some places where wind could be harnessed. Places like the Columbia River Gorge, for instance. The Hood River area draws wind surfers from all around the world.
Wind farms could be installed either upstream or downstream from there if the players should object to the disfigurement of their environment.
Hells Canyone, Idaho, is another place that seems a natural. Any place, in fact, where geographic features create almost constant air movement.
