A leading scientist claimed that while turbines are considered to be a clean alternate to fuel supply, the authorities in UK should not expect that turbines will play a major part in reducing carbon footprint and help in reducing the impact of climate change.
In the recent debate hosted by the Daily Express, two experts maintained that mankind is not doomed, some scientists indicating to melting ice caps, increasing sea levels and erratic weather.
They argue the extent that all are to be blamed for the present situation and question whether new types of energy are the solution.
According to Dr. Benny Peiser, Director of The Global Warming Policy Forum, wind turbines have come to the limit of their efficiency and amount should be utilized somewhere else.
Peiser said he is in favor of alternative energy and he is against spending amount at technologies that might not have a future. Adding to it, he said that wind energy has reached its limit and according to him solar has a brighter future.
Bob Ward, Policy and Communications Directory at The Grantham Research Institute, asked the Government to continue spending amount in new cleaner means of fuel, like wind farms.
Discussing about climate change could not be described by natural phenomenon alone, Ward said that mankind has plainly played a part and recommended that they need to think again about the way that they fuel our planet.
China was making one new coal-powered plant every week and only 10% of its energy needs by 2030 would be met by a renewable source.
"We don't know if climate change in the next 50 or 100 years will be a big problem, a moderate problem or a small problem. We're not sure how much warming we will see", said Dr. Peiser.
The debate on global warming comes weeks after thousands of people collected around the world to protest against climate change at the People's Climate March.
