Support
Overwhelmingly, Australians support wind energy and the construction of wind farms.

“media coverage gives significant attention to challenges, protests, vocal opponents and high profile individuals, but fails to balance this with coverage of middle ground views, or with equivalent attention to the potential benefits of wind farms.”

“An appreciation of the economic benefits associated with a strong renewable energy industry is not contingent on belief in climate change; even sceptics can appreciate the opportunity to make a buck.”

Benefits
Clean energy generated locally provides a share of the wealth it creates as well as employment in the region.

“We’ve got people who used to work
as a butcher, fitters, mechanics, a shearer, and
electricians.”

Health
We don’t need to be concerned about our health living near to wind turbines.

Visual impact
Wind turbines at work areharnessing nature’s energy.The impact of fossil fuels on
the landscape is beyond visual.

Property
There’s no correlation between the presence of a wind farm and lower property prices.
