Wind Turbines Meet Resistance

Done reasonably, and with full regard for the public interest, aren't wind turbines better than more coal plants?

I am not familiar with this plan: the opposition may be completely in the right.

But as we saw earlier when the Kennedy family so vociferously opposed turbines off Martha's Vineyard, even people with good environmental records can become NIMBY's, too.
