San Diego's backcountry fights wind turbines
@Audrey, I agree the blinking red lights are annoying to locals at night. Unfortunately they are required by the FAA on all structures greater than 200 feet. I work in both wind and solar energy, and I can tell you from experience that they are the most efficient green energy sources available (apart from energy efficiency--the "negawatt" is truly green!). Do you have any other solutions in mind? I find wind and solar preferable alternatives to fossil fuel use, and nuclear is not economical (by a longshot) at this time.— August 28, 2013 1:25 p.m.
San Diego's backcountry fights wind turbines
Mr. Siobhan Braun, this is reprehensible. You've interviewed disgruntled locals only and made absolutely no attempt to fact check what they said or cover both sides. You got a cover page article that says wind turbines are "linked to cancer". Really?! Put up a valid source for this wild claim, or issue an apology to your readers.— August 28, 2013 12:13 a.m.
