Les Nichols lives beside a wind farm in Furness, a scenic area in the north-west of England. For the past two years, he and his neighbors have had to put up with a level of noise that disrupts their sleep and causes stress.

“When the developers sought the permission for the seven giant turbines(涡轮机) in this area, they guaranteed there would be no disturbing sounds，” he says. The wind farm is managed by Wind Prospect, Bruce Allen, a director of Wind Prospect, said that the fact that no action had been taken to close the wind farm suggested it had not broken planning regulations. He added: “The noise is a subjective thing-like living next to a busy road. We have fixed special noise reduction software.”

The government has plans to double the number of wind farms in an effort to get 20 percent of electricity from renewable sources. Wind farms are gaining popularity as power companies take advantage of generous government subsidies(补贴) and apply to build turbines on windy sites.

Wind power also receives strong support from environmental groups such as Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth, which believe the cost to the countryside in noise and disfigured landscapes is worth paying for the benefit of reduced air pollution.

Residents, however, argue that having a series of giant wind turbines near their homes transforms a quiet neighborhood into an ugly industrial site.

Among the other unpleasant effects documented by residents' opposition groups are many more visits to the doctor. Angela Kelly, who chairs the anti-wind farm residents' campaign group, Country Guardian, claims they make people ill.
