Seems ok to me. If anything we ought to be removing some of the energy we're so enthusiastically adding to the atmosphere.

- abpavel 9y agoIf you mean temperature, then wind turbines actually increase temperature (friction, inefficiencies...) of locale climate. Solar panels cool the Earth, not turbines. Wind is a byproduct of solar power. Why not derive energy from the primary source (solar) instead of going for secondary (wind). Edit: really curious about downvotes. There is nothing in the above that's controversial. I've also provided data below: http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/11/4/044.. http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/11/4/044.... "Specifically, we discovered that operational wind turbines raised air temperature by 0.18 °C"
