There's a familiar chorus of criticism when it comes to renewable energy - what happens if the sun doesn't shine or the wind is calm? But that certainly isn'...

Does anyone know about the environmental impact of these? I sometimes hear about boat propellers hurting wildlife, so what about these?

I’m almost an 11h drive from the nearest coast, so this is not an area of knowledge I am well versed in haha.

    You gotta remember that any form of energy only needs to be less damaging than the alternative to be better. When the alternative is coal, every other form of energy is less damaging.
