The Buffalo Bills football team has just installed a set of new micro wind turbines at Ralph Wilson Stadium, to harvest clean, renewable energy from Buffalo’s notorious winter winds. Though the installation is fairly modest compared to the Philadelphia Eagles’ new wind turbines, it does demonstrate how professional football has joined NASCAR, major league baseball, hockey, and other popular sports in a kind of stealth campaign to promote public support for alternative energy.

The Buffalo Bills’ micro wind turbine installation may disappoint some wind power fans, since it consists of only a few turbines, and they are only scheduled to be in place for about a year and a half. That pales in comparison to the Eagles, who rimmed the top edge of their stadium with 80 permanent, futuristic looking micro turbines.

Amazing that they have a photo of a runningback and not the subject of the article, the micro turbines.
