The two five-year study by the American Academy of Pediatrics Fellow, New York pediatrician, Dr. Nina Pi Niwa point over the completion of research concerns the United States, Britain, Italy, Ireland and Canada, five countries living in the vicinity of the wind power station of 38 residents .
Dr. Pierpoint, wind turbines would interfere with low-frequency sounds given ear vestibular balance system.
The noise frequency is very low, the human ear can not hear, but it will lead to “visceral vibration-induced vestibular disturbance” (VVVD). Symptoms include trembling, nervousness, fear, escape impulse, such as chest tightness, and tachycardia. Wind turbines may also trigger nightmares of children and prevent children’s normal development of the brain, leading to cognitive developmental disorders.
For a long time, voice scientists believe that if people can not hear a sound, then the other parts of the body can not discern such a low frequency sound.
However, Dr. Pierpoint, people can in fact be by skeleton “listening” sound; Not everyone living in the vicinity of the wind power station people will be hurt, but the future of wind power stations should be built at a distance of 2 km away from residential areas.
Some scientists believe that the study sample, Dr. Pierpoint too small (38 people), not enough to draw such a conclusion.
British Wind Energy Association said that in 2007 a wind generators plant and the noise on the independent research shows that the UK more than 2000 wind turbines in the blocks, only four were found in complaints.
United Kingdom Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change Ed Miliband said that the also plans to install about 4,000 wind turbines.
But the British Sleep Association, founder of Christopher Vaughan Yuning that the study should be a wind power plant planners, the “must-read thing.”
