The most beautiful piece of human altered land that I've seen was in the hills
surrounding Oakland, California. While this once was a fantastic piece of the
native floristic province, it had been trashed with mining and erurasian
grasses for cattle. But it was currently being used for both cattle and wind
energy and neither seemed bothered that the other was happening in the same
place. That farmer actually might be making money...

biomass, solar and wind require more space for production-
which means more land must be altered that could otherwise support a
natural ecosystem.
