Here in rural America, turbines use very little land. Probably similar to an oil well. The field it is placed in loses little capacity for other farm uses. The farmer gets a nice subsidy and the county receives tax revenue. This scenario is the majority of the US.

I agree they do not fit into urban environments. And they also do not fit in tourist areas, where people wish to gaze upon unspoiled nature, such as many mountain ranges in the US.

The first time I saw the red beacons on the western Illinois wind turbine field I was at first confused and then absolutely awestruck. There are SO MANY.
