    Wind turbines are noisy. You probably wouldn’t mind them in view, but you don’t want to live too close. The owners don’t want you to live too close either: while it almost never happens, if a blade falls off and it only kills some corn or a cow people don’t care too much, but if it destroys their house or kills a person they get mad.
