i noticed that the netherlands has a lot of these wind turbines. often i dont really think they fit the landscape, but here it was sort of ok. this is in the province of flevoland, the province with the highest number of wind turbines. wind power is one of the renewable energy sources. building such "wind farms", as they call them, is quite expensive! a wind farm built out on the sea in 2008 cost over 500 million euros (but sufficient to power 125,000 homes).....

Must be fun to have a car, did you get a parking licence? It is rather difficult in Amsterdam I understand.
I've seen a couple of "farms" like these in California. They're not always popular because birds can fly into them and get killed. But it seems like they can be a good renewable energy source.
