the concerns on wind energy are blown up artificially.
specific example from Germany is "the dangers of infrasound", which led to a highly restrictive anti wind energy "protective distance requirement" of 10 x height ("10H rule") in Bavaria.
And then someone figured the underlying study was off by three orders of magnitude, i.e. 1000x off.
yet the disinformation has sunk into the heads and wind energy now has an irrational and steep uphill battle.
