The Garrison State Is Tough To Make Green

The military opposes some wind turbines...so its jet-fuel burning planes can train without purported radar interference.


Anybody see the paradox in that?

Whether Project Elf in Northern Wisconsin, or sonar harming whales, the message is clear: in a garrison state, the military shall take precedence!

It seems obvious to me that the military would know the difference on its radar systems between a land-based wind farm and a moving object in the skies. What is the deal here???? We should cut the defense budget in favor of more environmentally sustainable energy systems and also to address our current economic problems.
