ATTN: #PINHEADGREENENERGYNAZIS

Check out what my research has uncovered: A two-megawatt windmill contains @260 tons of steel which requires @170 tons of coal and @300 tons of iron ore, all mined transported and produced by hydrocarbons. This wind turbine can spin until it falls apart and it will never, that's NEVER generate as much energy as was required to construct it. Further, keep in mind that the above does not include all the energy required to deliver the parts onsite via a constructed stone access roadway...assemble with large cranes on a concrete foundation enclosing miles of copper cable, which is mined from Mother Earth. Stepping away from the KoolAide, you should be able to see, this carbon foot print is a large one indeed...even bigger than the carbon footprint from Al Gore's home.
