They create clean energy but many people have a problem with them.

While a good green alternative form of energy, their application is limited due to their cost. It takes about half their lifetime to pay themselves off.
I personally think hydro-kinetic turbines are a better green power producer. Although they are still being tested, they are far cheeper, produce the same amount of electricy, have a similar environmental impact, and take up less space. All you need is a little water flow.

Many of the problems are based off of how they look to that person. Some of the older turbines had issues with buzzing that could also cause people to dislike them. My opinion is that they are a great source of energy and beautiful to see in large farms. Most children love pin wheels, why not think of them as large useful pin wheels?

They are good but they have environmental drawbacks as well, like chopping up birds.
