Incinerators and Wind Farms

Both are blots on the landscape, but the Green Police hate the first and love the second!

They argue against the first on the grounds of pollution. Just remember, that the worst incinerators in this country produce air pollution at a level several hundred times less than you get from one cigarette!

But both generate electricity! The difference being that an incinerator creates power all the time, whereas a wind farm doesn't. Oh! And you can put incinerators where they are needed, whereas wind farms have to be sited so that they intrude on the countryside.

So would I have either on my land?

No!

That's the real problem. Nimbyism!
