QUIXOTIC as it may sound, I decided to take a look at my nearest windmill. 
Renewable energy sources are necessary to save the earth and reduce carbon emissions which are destroying our atmosphere. 
Every move towards wind, wave or solar power will be of help but all projects need to be thoughtfully and carefully planned in respect of the beautiful British environment. Litterers and fly-tippers, shame on you.
I am also interested in the new jargon associated with new wind technology. 
Some have argued that the collective term for a group of wind turbines should be a generation. Another flattering term is a ballet because they resemble legs in tights. 
Less welcoming collective nouns include an eyesore, a rash, a folly, a subsidy, a mendacity, a bitter blow and an abomination. What do others think?
I am sure my early 20th century generation have had their share of the earth’s spoils, caused mass extinction of many species and depleted rare material for their mobile phones, etc.
I am grateful to have had a very long life with no fear of being cold, hungry or destitute. 
Sadly, the future for many seems bleak. Over populated Britain, full of toffs, celebrities and royals will be countered by an increasing reliance on benefits, food banks and the poor dying on our streets.
I look forward to the 22nd century but, sadly, none of us will live to see the big party in 2100.
