"[Princeton University] graduate student Somnath Roy . . . reported that simulations of a wind farm in Oklahoma with 10,000 windmills could increase temperatures by upward of 2C for several Windturbine hours in the early morning. These findings mirror an actual but previously ignored temperature rise that U.S. government meteorologist Neil Kelley observed at an actual wind farm in California in 1990."

A team of Canadian and U.S. scientists have published a report stating that, in some strange way, wind-generated power may alter the climate.

Can it be true?

Some smart guys on Slashdot say no.
