Wind Turbines or Power Stations?

[Stitch]

I like wind turbines theres one right near Madejski Stadium (Readings football stadium)
I would prefer wind turbines they look cool

[::d4nnyt::]

I like the look of both they fascinate me, they were going to build a windfarm at nocton fen about 3 miles from where I live. Apparently they would have been the biggest turbines in the country but the NIMBYs complained even though it was closer to bardney than nocton.

The nicest looking power station is Ironbridge Power Station.

wind turbines r like one of the best an safest ways i nvr seen 1 close but its better than plces for coal and oil and cleaner. also say nuclear power is like dangerous and that

I dont care if up-clsoe wind turbines are ugly or good jsut that there a good and easy way for energy well if in widnie areas

Wind Turbines, should be more of them imo save our planet.

Its not how it looks, Its what is the best, Wind Power is a rubbish Power Producer which need renewing every 10/15 Years whereas Coal and Gas Stations can last YEARS!

Personally I think we Should go Nuclear and use the rest of the Coal and Gas up, I think Global Warming is absolute rubbish.

I wouldn't mind seeing wind turbines.. they look fine, and tbh even if they didn't they'd prevent alot of fossil fuels being used, so who cares if they're an eye sore.

People say Power Stations look ugly, Well you only need 1 Power station hidden in Trees to power lots of Homes unlike Wind Farms where you needs Hundreads/Thousands.

Wind power is unrealyable but I wouldn't go as far as saying it was a rubish power producer. Nuclear power is rubish, many of the nuclear powerstations in the UK do not produce half the amount of electricity a coal fired powerstation produces.

If anyone has ever heard the term carbon neutral? Apparenly wood is carbon neutral because the carbondioxide the tree absorbes in its life out weighs the carbondioxide it produces when it is burnt. Well coal is made from tree and plants from millions of years ago, so these trees and plants have absorbed carbon dioxide so I think coal is carbon neutral. Although coal isn't really sustainable.

The cost of Wind Power to put up and Keep replacing it not worth it, Takes too much time and is unreliable, Nuclear Power is one of the Cleanest and Most Power producing energys around, The UK Hardly has any Nuclear Power Plants and most are being Decommissioned, If we built anthoer generation of Nuclear Power Plants it would benefit our country greatly, Jobs, Cheap Energy, Not having to rely on other Nations, Coal and Gas produce most of the Uk's energy because they are the biggest power producers in the UK.

Nuclear power is also costly but probably not as costly as wind. Bu when you say it takes to much time, I think building and decommissioning a nuclear power station will take well longer. And the time for the nuclear waste to decay, millions of years. Nuclear power isn't very safe, example chernoblyl (or however you spell it). But saying that if a nuclear power station in france was to leak it would affect much of this country anyway. Nuclear energy can create jobs but what I think is better is to start coal mining again on a large scale. This will provide alot of jobs and coal is said to last 200 years longer than oil and gas at current usage rates. Coal power stations arn't what they used to be and don't pollute much, furthermore if a coal power station was built in a city it could provide heating for many homes, which would be good for the environment because people wouldn't be using fuels to heat their houses. With this there would be little need for cooling towers which lowers the visual impact of a power station.
