Less poison in the air is always a good thing. It'll bring down our carbon footprint in any case (will things like electric powered or wind powered passenger planes be possible in the near future, perhaps?)
I'm suspicious of the whole "alternative energy is a losing proposition" propaganda. Far as I can figure, the only reason more of the private sector isn't jumping on board is that oil companies know that even if oil reserves are drying up (or because they're drying up) they have a few years yet to bleed people dry.
BTW, personally, I don't think they're very ugly
... they're a far sight prettier than a lot of industrial plants we've already built and keep building

PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
