However, the effects of wind farms on vegetation have not been explored3. For example, life cycle assessments, which have been widely used to quantify the environmental impacts of wind farms across the life cycle15,16,17,18, have often excluded the impact on vegetation, even though there has...
Since its debut, the BRI has been conceptualized as the "Green Belt and Road" as the Chinese government is committed to sustainability, environmental protection, and international environmental standards. In 2015, the Belt and Road Initiative Action Plan was released by the Chinese government, outlin...
One side of the argument is composed of wind proponents who advocate the environmental benefits of wind energy to tackle climate change and secure energy sources. On the other side of the argument are the opponents who are concerned with potential health and ecological impacts. Although wind has ...
