hey there
it is an (almost) universal truth (mostly) accepted that all forms of change get greeted with resistance. this comes from belligerence, sure, and an instinct to rebel, but for the most part it is simply that we, the people, don't like change. consistency is a comfort.
one instance of this which came to mind is, or was, that of these wind turbine things. sorry, i have a decided sense of deja vu, and may well have covered this before. hey ho, i took some pictures and a video (which i think new, improved blogger has once again tilted sideways), so here we are again.
full well it is i remember that time (the 80s, no less) when the idea of placing wind turbines, in furtherance of supplying electricity or what have you (with the what have you there being understood as electricity) to our great and proud nation. oh no, people said, loudly, although not on "social media" for we didn't have it. these wind turbines would be an eyesore, a veritable blight on the landscape and ruin the way our world looks.
should i recall correctly, as well as being "ugly", these wind turbines were never ever going to be able to produce enough energy, and the cost would always outweigh their value. going on what limited understanding i have of things i see on the news, i believe it is the case that those claims have proven to be incorrect. good.
well, anyway, that's that.
be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
