Donald Trump labels windmills an 'economic and environmental disaster'

United States President-elect Donald Trump has taken to social media to blast windmills, says Sky News host Rowan Dean.

Donald Trump has criticized wind turbines, labeling them as both an "economic and environmental disaster." In a recent statement, he argued that windmills are not only visually unappealing but also detrimental to the environment and wildlife, particularly citing the harm they cause to birds. Trump also questioned the reliability of wind energy, pointing out its dependence on weather conditions, which he claims leads to inconsistent power supply. He further attacked the economic aspect, suggesting that the subsidies and costs associated with wind energy make it an inefficient and expensive energy source. This critique aligns with his broader skepticism towards renewable energy solutions, favoring instead traditional fossil fuels.
