The areas of mid-Wales and the Monadhliath mountains earmarked for wind-turbines are most definitely large swathes of wilderness. I'll see if I can find some links later, but we're talking hundreds of hectares. All for our convenience. As a species, we need to stop this "jam today" mentality of having everything we want NOW and to hell with the future.

Also, if as Gladman says the technology is not being used effectively, but just stuck up to make a quick buck, that makes the possibility of wilderness loss even more unpalatable.


I would like to see the links tsc and of course I agree completely with the spirit of what you are saying - which is why I'm so against nuclear energy as a solution to 'our' ever growing need to consume more energy. Personally I feel its a gloomy scenario, I can't see a way through it at all - I just hope the children of today will grow up to think differently, if we can get them back out into the woods to learn about and appreciate the natural world.
