Build the wind farm. I am all for it. But it will not make your bill go down, may up. Don't forget about the upkeep involved. The only good thing is that it is a renewable energy. It may reduce the local area need for gas oil and coal slightly.

I also say invest more money in clean coal technology. This country has more coal reserves than the mid east has oil.

I would rather see windmills in my back yard than stacks billowing smoke, chemicals and steam. I have been 200' from the base of windmills in PA and they are virtually silent. With oil and gas prices rising because we are hostages to oil producing nations, we just gotta do something smart for a change.
But, don't do anything where the piping plover's nest!

If I knew I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself!!
