Support Overwhelmingly, Australians support wind energy and the construction of wind farms.

media coverage gives significant attention to challenges, protests, vocal opponents and high profile individuals, but fails to balance this with coverage of middle ground views, or with equivalent attention to the potential benefits of wind farms.
