nostr:npub1stdk78dkwad3dtdvez7pasryruv2aegcf8cm02hfhkea5qc80uusdt4r04 not sure wind turbines have that big an influence on overall wind - I've never seen evidence of that, at least. have you?
I imagine limitation is more good places to stick turbines...
nostr:npub15zu89j2k6sja8qgcs5qdu2pfra5kemhlgeern2cpcw2svkuvkudqu3s7lx That's a good point, I hadn't considered the limitation of "where can we install the turbine". I doubt we have enough wind turbine density to see significant impacts, even if that's possible. I did some searching and came across this: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-wind-turbines-affect-temperature/
Looks like studies so far say effects are very localized.
