Just going back to windmills in your neighborhood for a moment ... I don't see what's wrong with not wanting them to intrude on a beautiful environment that should be preserved for generations beyond one's own.
I suppose we could simply burn all the trees in National Parks if we were more concerned with energy production than nature.
Truth is, there's plenty of barren, windswept spots in this vast nation for those ugly turbine fields. It's true that seacoasts are windy, but they are also a vast natural treasure that should not be ruined so we can play Nintendo.
(Of course, if they learn to disguise the big turbines as quaint Dutch windmills of yore, then we may be able to plant them in picturesque locales.)
