    @catjones271 i have been all over the world, i have even lived on islands. the sky is the same everywhere, and i never get board looking at it.

  • mollydtt:

    I grew up in west Texas. Every time I pass through Sterling City, I am amazed at how many more wind turbines have been added since the time before.
    West Texas is always windy and the perfect place to start producing wind energy. When the price of oil skyrockets again, we will be glad to have other sources—and non-polluting.
    I don’t think the wind farms detract from the landscape at all. It’s all flat with microwave towers and telephone poles.

    I sell residential wind turbines and most are available with an adapter to “plug in” solar panels. That way there is no need to rewire to your home. Your ready to roll.

  • adamberg666:

    @812anita thats awesome!!!

  • WindPowerKits:

    WOW! Great report! two thumbs up!

  • SmallWindTurbines:

    Big wind turbines are the wrong way to go. These are just too big, too much. 7% of all the electricity is lost in transmission. Wasteful. The same raw materials and labor should go to putting smaller rooftop wind turbines at the point of use. Then the 7% for the life of the equipment will be saved, used. Look at my videos of wind power, it’s a far better approach than these big wind farms. Peace.

    This guy Dan in the purple shirt was probably against the wind turbins, so when he saw others making money, and he aint, now he’s crying fowl…tough shit dude..

  • SirCliveCalculator:

    This is all good – just one or two little trolls who think theyre ugly. Fuck em. Wind baby, wind.

  • WindPowerKits:

    i like it. Look at my Home Wind Turbine videos, pretty cool system I put on my Home Rooftop. My RoofMill design just won a green design contest. Friends and subscribers welcome.

  • Juefawn:

    They don’t look monsters to me.

  • JackieEco:

    @mollydtt …and nothing looks worse in our skies than pollution:)

  • case139:

    There may be so many of those turbines, but West Texas WILL benefit from the investment in wind energy. A lot of the towns that previously were dying will now find a new lease on life that’s cleaner and safer. Plus, the turbines are also, admittedly, so much fun to look at. ;-)

  • nomadnametab:

    midland is really bland scenery, but east of ft. stockton it is not so bad. if anyone reading this has never been in west texas, let me tell you, there is nothing like it. you have only one town over 10,000 people along I-10 it is impressive, if intimidating in its remoteness. drive from san antonio to el paso and you have covered 1000 km with a population of less than 50,000.

  • drfoxcourt:

    And I thought that nothing good came out of Texas ;-) Reap that wind!

  • cpretartedmuch:

    when did you rednecks ever become interested in green tech, i though u idiots were too busy trying to put us blacks back into slavery.

  • CrystalYunixy:

    @cpretartedmuch
    QQ,troll,repeat.
    Thats what you can and only do.

    enough with the racism retard, grow some brains and realize not everyone is freaking the same, people are different and i would gladly return slavery so you could be killed, cause clearly, you bring shame to black people too.

  • Nymphofthesea:

    Thanks! We build those whirly gigs here in Pcola, FL.

  • pimezon:

    @CrystalYunixy :QQ is so gaming jargon , bro!

  • CrystalYunixy:

    @pimezon
    Maybe, maybe not.
    And please, don’t call me a bro :P

  • Briankey1960:

    This guy who claims to be offended by his neighbors ability to have wind machines on his property, maybe he refuse to have those Wind Turbines on his property, now that his neighbors are making money, he is pissed off he didnt jump on the wind Turbine train, and it left him…
