Erwiderung

Die Leserbrief-Autoren (im Folgenden „Kritiker“ genannt) sind Mitglied im „Aktionskreis Energie und Naturschutz“ (AKEN), wo sie bereits in verschiedenen Schriftstücken [1] aus ihrer grundsätzlichen Aversion gegen Windkraft keinen Hehl gemacht haben. Ihre Behauptungen halten allerdings wissenschaftlichen Kriterien nicht stand.
