Sometimes "ugly" is even "not pretty and wealthy looking".
Wind turbines aren't pretty but they're not any more of an eye sore as overhead power lines or whatever. And at least it's a symbol of caring about being sustainable.
A lot of people like to move all the "ugly" elsewhere out of their sight and then call those places shitholes. It doesn't bother them they're just moving the infrastructure where the less wealthy have to deal with it. They'd rather a coal plant destroy a lower class city in pollution than see wind turbines near their upper class neighbourhood.
I think any place that rejects renewables should get a coal fired power plant instead. Let them reconsider it as their kids grow up with heavy metals and all the other shit these things spew out.
