Wind energy was the source of about 9.2% of total U.S. electricity generation and about 46% of electricity generation from renewable energy in 2021. Wind turbines convert wind energy into electricity. President Biden’s 2021 $2.3 trillion infrastructure plan included a 10 year extension of wind and solar tax credits. Qualifying wind farms will receive tax benefits based on their output for a 10-year period. The credits, which can be shared with investment partners, reduce federal tax bills. Opponents to wind farms, including many environmental biologists argue that they are one of the…

No, windmills kill many birds, and when they break they are not recyclable
No, wind power is an inferior alternative to hydro and nuclear power
@8WNT76FLibertarian4yrs4Y
No. Not until they have a longer usable life span.
@jacob764yrs4Y
No, allow it to be privatized and do more research to make it more effective for future use
@8FNXSF2Progressive5yrs5Y
No, because there are other more viable sources of clean energy to give subsidies to
@9CDXR592yrs2Y
While agree with being environmentally friendly the government should not give incentives to do so
@5JBLHDWLibertarian2yrs2Y
No, not until wind power technology is improved and more effective.

No, nationalize the energy sector and shift our reliance to nuclear and fission energy
@96VF5TV3yrs3Y
No, rather nationalize the energy sector and focus on nuclear energy
@96T9MWL3yrs3Y
No, but we should still try to explore more cleaner and renewable energy sources such as hydroelectricity and solar energy
@5JBLHDWLibertarian3yrs3Y
No, but provide more incentives for alternative energy production in general.
@9443BS73yrs3Y
No, nationalize the energy sector and invest in alternative energy technologies.
