The wind turbine syndrome
If wind turbines make people sick, you would expect countries like Denmark and Germany, which have a lot of them installed over a relatively small area, to have the most complaints. A new video tries to prove how noisy the turbines are, but the filmmakers have a hard time capturing the sound of the turbines against the general background noise.
The new video is part of a new crowdfunding campaign called Energy Democracy TV. It aims to explain to the world that the switch to renewables offers a one-time opportunity to democratize energy supply – meaning that people can take their energy production into their own hands instead of continuing to leave it up to corporations.

Analysis of the 50 most commonly cited studies, reviews and governmental reports used by both sides finds that the literature used by anti-wind campaigners to claim health impacts is much, much less reliable than the evidence showing no health impacts outside of limited noise annoyance to some. http://barnardonwind.com/2013/08/06/health-studies-reliability/

Imagine having a large tree in front of the house, rocking in the wind ..... chainsaw. That makes me sick.
Nice video, thanks.
