How Can Wind Farms Affect People?

Wind farms can produce noise, shadow flicker, and visual impacts that may affect people living nearby. Noise from wind turbines can be a concern for people who live close to wind farms, especially at night when background noise is lower. Shadow flicker occurs when the sun passes behind a wind turbine and the moving blades cast shadows on nearby buildings and land. This can be a nuisance for people who live or work in areas affected by shadow flicker. Visual impacts from wind farms can also be a concern for some people, as they may feel that wind turbines are unsightly or that they disrupt the natural landscape.
