Claim Wind Generated by Mills Causing Late Spring
By Joshua Needham | Social Media Editor
Students are working on a petition to have the two massive wind turbines shut down this April, saying that the excessive winds are preventing the spring season from coming.
Spring should have sprung for students on March 20th, but instead we’ve been suffering through high winds and low temperatures. It would seem as though students won’t stand for the delayed warm weather any longer and are putting together a petition to shut the turbines down to prevent spring from being blown away.
“They built these over-sized pinwheels what feels like forever ago with the promise of renewable energy and a cleaner carbon footprint,” Sum Won said, “but they never told us that they were going to create such violent winds and make the weather so cold. We can’t just sit idly by and wait for this to blow over. No, wait, don’t publish that.”
It has become clear that spring is afraid to come around while these turbines are running. Maybe it’s worried about getting caught in the blades. Maybe it’s just a sadistic season. Regardless of spring’s true intent, it’s important that we all gather together in support of stopping the turbines and welcoming the warm weather back to MWCC.
