I remember reading somewhere (probably my high school textbook) that one of the reasons people don’t like wind power being built is they cause visual pollution.

In my opinion, I think it would be pretty cool to just look out my window and see a giant windmill there, the opposite of visual pollution.

    Ehhhh I can see it. It’s usually out in nature where people might want to just see nature… but I also usually see it in places where people aren’t going sight seeing as much. It’s fields. Which are nice. Those are nice to see. But it’s not the thing people are seeing in the towns as much. But if they were, I don’t see how it could really ruin the view of a neighborhood.

    If it was something like in campgrounds, going out to the lake and it’s just right there in front of the view of the mountains, right off to the side of hiking trails, I would hate it. But over all I don’t see it as that huge of a deal. They tend to find the best places for it with causing the least amount of trouble for others.
