  1. 3 tenets • 100% renewable energy is inevitable • Distributed energy = community power • Investment shapes the future

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

  3. “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.”

  4. “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.”

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

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

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

  8. Birth defects in and death of farm animals • Bowel cancer • Breathing difficulty • Cold sores • Depression • Back pain • Fungal, viral, parasitic skin infections • Dental infections • Diabetes • Multiple schlerosis • Diarhoea • Weight loss • Weight gain • Eye discharge • Foot sores • Hair loss

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

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

  11. Are wind turbines noisy? Hardly. Let’s check the facts.

  12. Some comparisons • Technology • Investment • Landscape • Water • Farming • Costs • Greenhouse gases • Community
