Wind farms can cause climate change, finds new study

• Is this like a double oxymoron? Global warming is bad - windmills help reduce global warming - windmills cause global warming. I say it's the weather and the windmills probably had nothing to do with it other than they happen to be where it's been hotter. If it cools off in the same place in the next year some retard will claim it's global cooling, or that global warming caused the windmills to suddenly cool the same area off. Perhaps if they reverse the rotation it will cause a local ice age.

• It's because they set some of them up in front of Al the Goricle's place, (AKA Manbearpig). The hot air from this location alone heated up the windmills until they popped.

• Windmills are just weather since they're localized. They aren't "climate change," right? I think that's how Gore's reasoning is supposed to work.

  • lol i have to laff at gore and reasoning being used in the same sentence.

• Actually, it's a good thing that windmills contribute to global warming. It's happening just in time, since we're heading back into our "worrying about global cooling" phase of propaganda.

• OK, maybe windmills will help increase globull warming, but it's all OK, because they are cutting down on the need for oil!
  As long as they never need to be lubricated.

  • or need aluminum for the blades or plastics for wiring insulation or....

• why not hook up stationary bikes to generate electricity, a bunch of them, in cities all over, and then employ those currently (sic) unemployed to operate them?

    I see what you did there....

• I like wave tech.

  • Careful, you'll warm up the ocean too much.

• What about all those windmills that Pete Townshend did during his guitar solos? Do we need to worry about that, too?

• *weapons-grade facepalm*

• Unicorn Farts... that's where the real power ls
