It's not a matter of personal preference. They put these thing away from most people for a reason. If they put them in cities or suburbs, a lot of people would complain and put an end to them.
Siting them in rural areas - who cares if some people in flyover country complain about the incessent noise or the ruined landscapes?
Don't believe me about the noise? Get a tent and try camping under one for a few days.
For someone living in the mountains, putting windmills atop all the mountains makes the views strictly worse. For someone visiting the mountains, it looks novel and sci-fi.
- eldaisfish 4y agowhy on earth would you camp under a wind turbine? And how? Most are on private land with access control. Besides, once you're more than a few hundred meters away, you can barely hear them. Don't believe me - please look up the sound power numbers of modern wind turbines and see how close you need to be to hear them.
- tomohawk 4y agoA few hundred feet away you can hear them very clearly. They emit a lot of sound on low frequencies that travels right through walls. The sound is very disturbing to animals.
