many can be placed on mountain and hilltops. wind turbines do not cause pollution, like coal factories, and wind is a renewable resource. it is also free, and wind power should become cheaper than fuel in the next few years. wind turbines are self sufficient, just place them and watch 'em spin! also, "wind" prices won't inflate like today's gas prices.
many birds can instantly be killed because the fast spinning blades of the turbines can not be seen very well. for people who live close to the turbines, the noise of the blades can be very disturbing. the wind turbines cannot be placed near cities (where they are needed the most). right now (April 2008) wind power will cost more than fuel energy. also these turbines are unreliable. winds have to be at least 17 mph strong to make the blades spin and thus produce energy
