They do, I agree. And they are all unnatural.
Seeing the turbines genuinely lifts my spirits too. Not for the sake of this argument, they genuinely do.
The turbines are not made of 'natural' material, of course, but they are only as alien as a field wall in the landscape.

I imagine you might enjoy a visit to Grimes Graves?

Should a Neolithic flint mine lift your spirits? "Money" making industry a-go-go with child labour to boot?!

Is that really a spiritual uplift?

We seem to choose our likes and dislikes based, not upon whats necessarily 'good', but upon our quite selfish interests.
It seems to me, anyway.
