SocraticGadfly: Listen up, pocketbook anti-greens

Listen up, pocketbook anti-greens

Global wind energy grew nearly 30 percent last year, with the growth rate being highest in the U.S. (Germany is still No. 1 in percentage of electric power derived from wind, despite being a less windy country.)

China doubled its wind power. European countries besides Germany saw large increases.

Bottom line is, people wouldn’t be expanding wind power this much if it weren’t viable.
