How do wind turbines enhance the natural view ? Nature is the best medicine and you want to blight the horizon? Where do the developers live ? One would imagine they won't have a front row view for this one!

Is this a green rush and push for profits over the environment and very little thought other than a quick fix? When you learn to work with nature, she provides easy and natural ways to harness her energy with harmlessness. It's about time we learnt to slow down enough to listen to nature, rather than our own "good ideas" that create harm and are driven by $$$'s. Time to wake up to what we are really doing to this planet and change it for the better. Time to listen with our heart and not our head. Time to wake up to our own consciousness. It will make a huge difference once we do and that is the learning for THIS lifetime and not someone else's. Om Namo Narayani.
