The Center for Local, State, and Urban Policy These sentiments are ubiquitous across subpopulations. There are no statistically discernible differences between Americans or Canadians in the Basin, between rural and non-rural residents, or between people in states that currently regulate at a local level versus those where regulation is done at the state/provincial level. The only difference is between self-reported liberals, conservatives, and those whose politics are “middle of the road” (see Table 3). When splitting the responses this way, liberals are significantly more likely (41%) to want federal government to have “a great deal of authority” in wind siting decisions than middle-of-the-roaders (23%) or conservatives (17%). Nevertheless, our findings indicate considerable support for multi-level governmental engagement on this issue. Table 3 Degree to which the federal government should have authority to regulate wind, by self-reported political ideology “Wind turbines are sometimes regulated in terms of their location, height, setbacks, and so on. How much authority do you think the federal government should have for such decisions regarding wind turbines?” And “In terms of your political outlook, do you usually think of yourself as very liberal, somewhat liberal, middle of the road, somewhat conservative, or very conservative?” Middle of the Road 23% 50% 22% 6% Liberal Great Deal of Authority 41% Some Authority 38% No Authority 16% Not Sure 5% Conservative 17% 50% 29% 4% Total 25% 47% 23% 5% Note: Margin of error ±8% Very liberal and somewhat liberal were combined in this table, as were somewhat conservative and very conservative. Mixed Public Opinion Mirrors Uncertainty in Science The survey also found that in areas where there is still a debate among the scientific community on the impact of wind energy, public opinion is similarly divided (see Table 4). Slightly more than half of residents (51%) believe that wind turbines do not reduce nearby property values. This very closely mirrors research studies that have been largely divided; some show modest reductions in home values while others show no effect.51 Table 4 Opinion on issues wherein there is debate among the scientific community on the impacts of wind energy “To what extent do you agree with each of the following statements about wind energy?” “Wind turbines create problems such as disruption of bird migration and local 10% 29% 31% 16% 14% “Wind turbines produce visual or aesthetic problems that reduce nearby property values” weather patterns” Strongly Agree 14% Somewhat Agree 26% Somewhat Disagree 32% Strongly Disagree 19% Not Sure 9% “Wind turbines preserve rural land” 13% 41% 17% 11% 19% Note: Margin of error ±4% 14 www.closup.umich.eduPDF Image | Wind Energy Development in the Great Lakes Region
