If T. Boone Pickens' plan is so great how come he isn't putting any windmills on his ranch? ?

Question

He says they're ugly. National Review.

Answer 1

his plan is to put them in such a place that they maximize their ability. his plan includes 1 billion of his own money that he will invest. one great place is of the shores in mass but the kennedys fought that tooth and nail. and honestly, who cares how it looks if it gets rid of the need for oil.

Answer 2

his ranch is not big enough for all those wind turbines.

they will stretch all the way from the Texas panhandle to northwest territory. and will power a million homes.http://earth2tech.com/2008/04/14/t-boone...

Answer 3

Confucius says: Do as I say, not as i do Gore. Start Panic.

Answer 4

Everyone needs to watch "secrets of oil" on Modern Marvels (history channel).  

Oil goes to make an awful lot more things than gasoline and diesel.

I don't know why he won't put windmills on his own property, but I'd gladly put them on mine if they worked, didn't make a lot of noise, and kept my power bill down each month.

Answer 5

T. Boone Pickens is after the millions of dollars that Al Gore is trying so hard to get when all the pollution credits start to become the next big thing.

Answer 6

the same reason that YOU don't put any on your trailer lot

and global warming maverick mccain

doesn't put any at his seven houses

Answer 7

Perhaps because he lives in an area where they wouldn't produce much.  More than likely because they are unsightly, would disturb the peace with their noise, and because he is much like al gore, he thinks others should do something but he shouldn't have to.

Answer 8

For one, how can you be worried about windmills when your worlds on eggshells.the north pole is at 60% what it was. and with so many true problems in our world does T boone plan to build you a house. or a new car. or anything in relation to you. of coarse not. so why dont you ask the true question... why am i so blind?
