Wind turbine design good for rural and urban environments



Many people are (perhaps ironically) against wind turbines for environmental reasons. Many people claim they are an eyesore, that they create noise pollution, and--perhaps most importantly--they disrupt local wildlife. Many people say traditional wind turbines look bad in the rural landscape, also that they create too much noise because they move much quicker than the wind itself. Also, birds, bats, and other animals can be negatively affected by an area heavily armed with wind turbines. These new smaller wind turbines seek to assuage the negative effects of traditional wind turbines without sacrificing much of the efficacy
