    Lightbulb Wind farms are warming the earth

    Wind farms are warming the earth, researchers say

    So free, renewable energy is destroying the Earth so we should keep burning fossil fuels to be safe?

    No... man is evil and destructive. We should all be exterminated to save Mother Gaia.

    This will all be resolved when the population of the Earth gets so huge that the Earth can't sustain it. Then, a solution will be thrust upon us whether we like it or not. After that, pollution won't be a problem for several hundred more years.
    If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything; really helps when you get old.

    We've already arrived at the solution numerous times. It's called "war". When resources become scarce, the fight will be on.

    If you read the actual source article, it says that there's no actual net temperature change -- just a local change on the ground right around the windmill.

    Meaning...it's not actually harming or altering anything in the overall atmosphere, it's just moving warmer air that was all ready there to a different spot.
