Do you think wind turbines could be harmful to the climate?

I was thinking about wind turbines. They are becoming increasingly popular and it made me think about how it may affect the world climate. Large areas that have thousands of wind turbines would almost certainly alter the wind patterns in the immediate area. Could this cause adverse or unwanted affects? Especially if you have many wind farms all over the world. After all, no one thought when they first started firing up coal power plants that they'd be putting the world climate at risk.

In your opinion, are wind turbines/farms attractive or unattractive? and why?

Visually, would you prefer solar farms or wind farms?

If wind farms were killing Tens of Thousands of Birds… would you laugh? ?

honestly....I would laugh for a second...just because the image I would have in my mind: Tree huggers who vehemently condemned Oil Companies for ruining our environment are now crying foul because of the rise of thousands of decapitated birds due to highly fuel efficient wind turbines...

man ....life of tree hugger...is never a happy one...lol

Is it better to study 'Green energy technology' at Leicester uni, or study an engineering degree, probably electrical eng?
Or if there are any other courses you suggest....? and why?
Or is there any point wanting to go into the renewable energy sector? will we ever actually turn to green energies? or will big oil/gas/nuclear companies rule what we do, and not allow us to move forward in a green way?

Where can wind enegry be used?

I need to answer this question: a single windmill can produce some energy, explain the use of wind farms and where wind energy can be used to power a whole city?

It is for a science report, so please give as much detail as possible!

What are the environmental factors that need to be considered before a company builds a wind farm?

Can some one please help me with this question. It's for a science assignment. What environmental factors does a company need to look into before selecting a site to build a wind farm?
