   good > renewable , clean(no emissions), not as expensive as solar, works in the night (not solar) , could be put in the sea, used in old mills to grind grains , pays for itself as the price of energy increases.

   Bad> noisy , takes up valuable good windy spaces , doesnt look to good , moving parts mean there will be some to stop working . not all places get wind , not common, unreliable as permanent souce of energy (eg. no wind for two days), waste of space , kills animals eg. birds. if to windy could be dangerous.

   Good
   - Will always be around
   -Zero emissions
   -equipment pays for itself with the electricity it creates

   Bad
   -Inconsistent (some days arent windy)
   -Limit to amount of electricity that can be produced
   - Some less windy locations wouldnt be useful
   - Small issue of birds being killed by wind turbines (PETA gets wayy too angry about this one because the turbines arent any more dangerous to birds than a large building.

   Good:
   -renewable energy
   -enough wind available to meet energy needs
   -turbines don’t cost that much to put up and don’t need much maintenence
   -doesn’t take up that much room
   -no air or water pollution

   Bad:
   -visual pollution (people think turbines are ugly)
   -noise pollution
   -they may interfer with migratory birds or birds of prey
