minus-squareOwl [he/him]hexbear6arrow-down1·4 years agoUnless something has changed in the last few years, wind is more deadly than nuclear power (per unit energy). Mostly maintenance accidents and fires. link
minus-squarekristina [she/her]hexbear4arrow-down1·4 years agoWind in general is worse than nuclear, however wind on land (say the great plains) is safer than nuclear, though that resource is obviously limited. link
minus-squareOwl [he/him]hexbear2·4 years agoDo you have a source on this? I can't find anything. link

minus-squareOwl [he/him]hexbear2·4 years agoNeither of these separate wind out by onshore vs offshore? At least anywhere I see? link
minus-squarekristina [she/her]hexbear3·4 years agoYeah I'm having a hard time finding the study that I used for that information, I know it exists for sure though because I found it surprising link
minus-squareOwl [he/him]hexbear2·4 years agoLet me know if you find it! I'd find it surprising too. link
minus-squarekristina [she/her]hexbear4arrow-down1·4 years agoRegardless, here's materials required to produce the various kinds of energy: https://environmentalprogress.org/big-news/2017/6/21/are-we-headed-for-a-solar-waste-crisis link
minus-squareOwl [he/him]hexbear3·4 years agoThat's a neat breakdown! It's kind of funny seeing hydro there: yup, it's just concrete. link
