People who live near wind turbines report having a lower quality of life

(Natural News) Wind turbines might be a popular source of renewable energy, but they can come at a big cost to those who live near them.

A research team from the University of Toronto explored how residential distance from wind turbines could impact people’s health. They looked at those who lived anywhere from just under 2,000 feet to up to 6.2 miles away from the turbines.

They also re-analyzed data that had been collected in 2013 as part of Statistics Canada’s Community Noise and Health Study. This looked at wind turbine noise based on factors like distance, meteorology, topography, and the sound power of the source.
