It's absolutely absurd to calculate the emissions based on the weight of the material.

I wasn't. It's a calculation of resources used in construction, not emissions which is a different issue.

I was saying that wind might have no emissions, but you still use lots and lots of resources in building it, so you have to include those when analyzing environmental impact.
