George, there is no truly clean energy. It's a game of relative comparisons. Consider the carbon footprint involved in producing, setting and maintaining just one of those monster windmills. Then multiply that by thousands. I'm not against wind or solar or anything other than wastefully inefficient ideas like ethanol, but you have to be realistic and look at the big picture.
