[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im not going to read the full thread. Im trying to understand why wind turbines are the Republicans' fault. [/quote] Plenty of reasons. Wind turbines work just fine in much colder places like Norway but Texas is Texas and fuxxed it up. Along with pushing back on alternatives to fossil fuel, meaning they had a lot less backup when their gas infrastructure froze up. Along with not properly winterizing any of their infrastructure. Along with cutting corners and not having backup generators. Along with detaching their power grid from the rest of the country so that nobody else could help. And they should have learned all of this when this exact same thing happened 2 years ago - but here we are, 2 years later, and they haven't fixed a damn thing. Because, they blockheaded Texans who would sooner sit and freeze than acknowledge that wind and solar are decent options, particularly in a state like Texas where those work really, really well.[/quote]
