Personally I think we have a responsibility to protect our last few areas of wilderness from any kind of industrial development that could harm them. I would rather see windfarms located offshore with a tie-into to wave generation.

Quite right too. There's a heck of a lot of sea out there, and it's got at least as much wind as the land has.

I'm all for windfarms if they're done properly, but I've read that some of the ones being proposed in the UK at present are tarnished by associations with dodgy companies who got turfed out of the industry on the continent for being a bunch of shysters.
