There's a lot of health claims being made around wind farms at the moment. To date there has yet to be a single peer-reviewed study that states that wind farms can cause health problems. It's all based on anecdotal evidence at the moment.
Too right it is anecdotal, a clearly biased anti-windfarm GP has interviewed less than a dozen families who presented with a wide range of symptoms (who are also pre-disposed to those symptoms) and blames wind farms, hardly what i would consider a thorough statistical or technical evaluation. Furthermore, all those interviewed were in North America, where planning laws allow turbines to be placed as close as 300m. The minimum setback in Australia is typically 3 times this distance.
Sorry not true. Wonthaggi,s one are 362m and 420m from a persons home and business.They were long established before the wind towers,which i think are a good idea.We just need much better planning laws to deal with different industries moving into new areas.
A better way to stop kitters is show them the injury rate and the hospital bills
