Wind farms are warming the earth, researchers say

New research finds that wind farms actually warm up the surface of the land underneath them during the night, a phenomenon that could put a damper on efforts to expand wind energy as a green energy solution.
Researchers used satellite data from 2003 to 2011 to examine surface temperatures across as wide swath of west Texas, which has built four of the world's largest wind farms. The data showed a direct correlation between night-time temperatures increases of 0.72 degrees C (1.3 degrees F) and the placement of the farms.
"Given the present installed capacity and the projected growth in installation of wind farms across the world, I feel that wind farms, if spatially large enough, might have noticeable impacts on local to regional meteorology," Liming Zhou, associate professor at the State University of New York, Albany and author of the paper published April 29 in Nature Climate Change said in an e-mail to Discovery News.

Kryst, you're dumb.

Why is it that the majority of progressives refute arguments with language and phrases that mimic a 3rd grader on the playground??

"I know you are but what am I?"

That individual took that time to make that post and all you can say is "you're dumb?"

NO YOU'RE FUCKING DUMB.....

So youre so stupid that you think transferring warmer air from one location to another reusltsin both location being warmer.
Why is it that right-wingers can't think
 
Someone should tell the primates free energy doesn't exist....

Free energy doesn't exist.


There.



P.S. wind isn't thought of as free energy. It's thought of as sustainable energy.
