Ontario Okays Wind Power in the Great Lakes

Ontario Okays Wind Power in the Great Lakes

Tapping the gales of the Great Lakes for electricity has never been done. Until now. The Ontario government has just lifted its moratorium on developing offshore wind farms, and there are already 14 projects waiting in the wings.

The moratorium has been in place since November 2006. NIMBYism the culprit. Residents feared the turbines would be giant eye soars, blocking their majestic lake views and shrinking their property values.
