Good, now cancel the rest of them.

Why?

These wind farms provide no net benefit. They produce little power, take up very large areas, and they are a severe danger to ocean life, especially whales. They also fail frequently, in spectacular fashion.

Wouldn't "blowback" be a better choice of words?
