It was not very long ago when Donald Trump argued that wind turbines were plain ugly and ruined landscapes.

The time has now come for Stephen Colbert to draw attention to the “dangers” of wind turbines and other means of harvesting renewable energy sources.

Truth be told, the arguments he brings forth seem true-to-facts, to say the least, and we are quite sure that, after watching this video, there will be many who will seriously start questioning whether human society should keep inventing in technologies that harvest green energy.

“We should all just keep burning fossil fuels. That way the problem won't be all in your head; it will be spread evenly throughout your lungs,” Stephen Colbert concludes.
