Crosby Sands (Again)

One more photo of Crosby sands, featuring, not the iron men but that sticky-up thing (whatever it is) and the off-shore wind farm.



I love wind farms. I think they're awesomely beautiful. People love old-style wind-mills- and what's the difference- except that modern wind turbines are so much more elegant? I've read that wind farms will never supply all our energy needs- but why not, if we build enough of them?

I do prefer wind farms out at sea to spoiling the view on the hills, but we do need some way of generating electricity. Personally I like hydro-electric. That's effective here in Wales where we have lots of rain and plenty of hills for it to run down. :)

You see, I don't think they do spoil the hills. Whenever I see a bunch I immediately think, "Wow, photo-opportunity!"

I reckon we should be exploiting all our natural resources- wind, rain, sun and streams...
