Wind power pollution ??

I've just read an article on recycling wind turbine blades??
Apparently there are thousands of wind turbine blades just laying
around on dumps or in stores waiting for a way to recycle them?
They will not just for away with time as they are made with fibre
reinforced resin,(fibreglass??) so cannot be melted down,( which
would use too much power anyway !!)
The reason for having to dump them so soon is that they have
developed much more powerfull and larger blades and so are
upgrading the existing ones by changing the blades!!
Any ideas what to do with the old blades??

No. But they should have thought of that when they made them.

Make barriers across the S-E coasts to prevent rubber boats from landing?

Surfboards?

Brilliant idea - the largest ones could keep the frogs out of our fishing grounds as well.

No, they are thermo cured, which involves a lot of energy, which
as you probably know defeats the object of green energy

Nothing comes without a cost to the planet.

Give them to third world countries to use with smaller turbines.

Make sculptures out of them.

Make skateparks or play areas out of them.

Use them to stop/reduce sea erosion.

What about using them to cure global warming???
