Senator Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation in Congress on Monday to protect a million acres of the Mojave Desert in California by scuttling some 13 big solar plants and wind farms planned for the region.

 

Sure, give me cheap renewable energy but don't mess with my desert view.

 

Oh...coal? nope bad

 

Nuclear? nope bad

 

Wind? not if I can see/hear the turbines

 

Solar? not if those ugly collectors mar my view

Never quite understood these arguments. We have power lines criss crossing the country and huge water tanks all over the place and now people are going to start complaining about wind turbines messing up the view?
