The Pros And Cons Of Wind Turbines

Today harnessing the energy of the wind is a great way to produce electricity for home use. Many home owners are installing small, home size turbines to help save on their utility bills.

Deciding whether investing in wind turbines for your home is the right approach, here are some pros and cons to consideration;

The Pros

Is This A Non-partisan Way To Help Generate Green Electricity And Help Out Farmers And The Economy?

Should the federal government contact farmers across the country and ask them if they would be intrested in a biomass power generation device using plant and other waste material from there farm paid for entirely with grant money which would generate green energy and extra income for them? Would this be a good use of tax dollars? Democrats would sign onto it because it would help the enviroment by generating green global warming free energy? Republicans would sign onto it because it helps farmers and the economy. It would help create energy independence helping disentangle us from the middle east as well. Open bid contracts would have to be used to make sure it was done as cheaply as possible but I have an example of one such device here. http://ge.ecomagination.com/@v=020220071…
Is this something congress could do that EVERYONE would be proud of and help them start working together to truly solve the problems we face as a nation and a world?
