Atomic energy technology, politics, and perceptions from a nuclear energy insider who served as a US nuclear submarine engineer officer

Wind energy food for thought from Morgan Stanley

August 31, 2008 By Rod Adams

Today has been a “clean up the office” day. I ran across an old issue of the Wall Street Journal that I had squirreled away, meaning to do something with it. As leafed through the paper, I tried to figure out just why I had saved that particular issue.

I realized that it was for the small advertisement in the bottom right hand corner of the front page. The paper was dated June 25, 2008. The ad photography speaks to my issue with wind energy promoters in a rather subtle way that enhances the value of the words as written. Can anyone pick out the small detail that should make one think long and hard about why it is probably not a good idea to try to base an industrial economy on wind turbines?
