The countryside is always changing. Several wind farms
already exist within sight of the SUW and more are
planned. Some may object to wind turbines like the one on
the merk design as unnatural intrusions in the
countryside. However, the countryside itself has, for
thousands of years, been shaped by people's activities.
Making electricity from wind is a very sound way of
utilising a free and renewable energy source. Modern
turbines are silent and many people find their simple
white forms elegant, or even beautiful.
