			<description><![CDATA[There is so much pressure from all side to develop wind energy projects. I just beg people to slow down! Take a look at how these huge monsters impact our incredibly beautiful landscapes. You don't only get the windmills, you get the disruption caused by the roads and powerlines that serve them. Imagine what it is like to have the scenes you enjoy every day and night ruined by blinking red lights and industrial development. Is this truly "green" energy? What about the impact on the birds and wildlife, as well? Is the short term gain of jobs worth the long-term loss of what we love most about Oregon and what visitors come from all over the world to enjoy? Please, please! Take a breath and let's live with what we have for a while before we let them populate our entire scenic vistas. And, just because you can't see them from where you live, doesn't mean they aren't a blight on the landscape for the people who live within 30 miles of them!]]></description>
