State's first wind farm planned in St. Mary Parish

[Mako19]

I agree the technology is not there yet to make alternative energy financially viable without the government tax breaks which I do not agree with. The government is only wasting money by backing businesses with no shot of success.

I do however like seeing independent companies (not mooching off of the government) doing research to progress technology for renewable energy sources such as solar and hydro power. Not sold on the wind farms.

Our oil supply will run out in the not so distant future. It wont be in my lifetime and probably not in my kid's life, but there is a finite amount of hydrocarbons that can be produced. When the oil runs out I sure hope that we have figured out an alternative energy source.

With that being said, I believe that nuclear power is the energy of the future.
