Companies are searching for ways to deal with the tens of thousands of blades that have reached the end of their lives.

A wind turbine’s blades can be longer than a Boeing 747 wing, so at the end of their lifespan they can’t just be hauled away. First, you need to saw through the lissome fiberglass using a diamond-encrusted industrial saw to create three pieces small enough to be strapped to a tractor-trailer.

The municipal landfill in Casper, Wyoming, is the final resting place of 870 blades whose days making renewable energy have come to end. The severed fragments look like bleached whale bones nestled against one another.

“That’s the end of it for this winter,” said waste technician Michael Bratvold, watching a bulldozer bury them forever in sand. “We’ll get the rest when the weather breaks this spring.”

Tens of thousands of aging blades are coming down from steel towers around the world and most have nowhere to go but landfills. In the U.S. alone, about 8,000 will be removed in each of the next four years. Europe, which has been dealing with the problem longer, has about 3,800 coming down annually through at least 2022, according to BloombergNEF. It’s going to get worse: Most were built more than a decade ago, when installations were less than a fifth of what they are now.

Built to withstand hurricane-force winds, the blades can’t easily be crushed, recycled or repurposed.

Hi, how often do you Masturbate, watch a video earlier and a guy said 7 times a day he was you :)

Wish all GBT members a very Happy and prosperous New Year.

We all know why people sign up for VIP , gayboystube has had MANY issues with this because of the Child Porn Issue any reputable vendor will not have anything to with kiddy porn and as soon as they find any they cut ties with the website as happened with Epoch Billing (Caused loads of issues LOL) cut all ties after an investigation into child porn now they using another provider BUT Using paypal etc DOES NOT give anonymity Epoch has submitted all subscribers details as will the new provider if you look at child porn expect a knock on your door trust me and using paypal WILL NOT hide you

As this year comes to an end we must reflect on the things that happened in 2012. Not in the nation but in our private lives. I find that I look back at the most important things for me: I found a very entertaining web site GBT and on the web site I made some friends One of these friends was a young man named Alan. who had came through a rough background and stood on top of the hill looking to his future. He inspired me to be more than I am and to look beyond my upper middle class life and to help those who are in need.Who I call my nephew. Another friend I met is who I call my Brother, Thomas. He is a wise man always cool headed when tempers flare. Always there with a kind word. Always able to see beyond a persons shortcomings and look at the good in someone. Thomas is the kind of man that should be leading a flock of young men, mentoring them with kindness and compassion. My life is so much better for knowing him. Stees: My other young nephew, he always is upbeat and plesant. Having a good and kind word for me. So excited about beginning his life with Misha. On the cusp of the adventure that is married life. And all my other friends here, Backstreet, Vegas, Davey and yes even you Damien I know what my life was like without you in it, and I think GOD that you are all in my life now. Together we shall make 2013 a year to remember ! Love to you all amd Happy New Year, Please celebrate safely! Peter

<p>He was quite a fixture here in the blogs for awhile, had a lot of enthusiasm, and seemed like a decent sort.

Too easy maybe...?

You guys have always been the best. But I've been receiving the warmest and most sincere "Welcome Back"'s. You are awesome. Love and hugs, JB

<p>Hi all, </p><p>In case anyone missed it, Stephen Fry is doing a really interesting two-part documentary about how homosexuality is perceived throughtout the world. It will probably boil your blood a little but well worth watching. The first episode is on BBC iPlayer and the next episode should be on next week sometime, BBC2.</p><p>All the best,</p><p>Peter.</p>

<P>Hi, I'm new as of yesterday, and today I received at least ten e-mails throughout the day telling me I had a private message, but they're not showing up in my inbox.

Every year on National Coming Out Day, we celebrate coming out as a lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ) or as an ally. On October 11, 2016 we will makr the 28th anniversary of National Coming Out Day.

28 years ago, on the anniversary of the National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights, we first observed National Coming Out Day as a reminder that one of our most basic tools is the power of coming out. One out of every two Americans has someone close to them who is gay or lesbian. For transgender people, that number is one in 10.

Coming out - whether it is a lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender queer or allied - STILL MATTERS. When people know someone who is LGBTQ, they are far more likely to support equality under the law. Beyond that, our stories can be powerful to each other.

Every person who speaks up changes more hearts and minds, and creates new advocates for equality.
