The new commercial talking of renewable energy and wind turbines is misleading and false. These turbines with the inaudible infrasound they emit cause health issues. In the commercial there are no homes visible. Big Wind is trying to put 652 ft IWT within 1334 ft of property lines throughout our County. Withdraw that commercial! They cause more negatives than any possible energy they could develop.

Wind can never produce enough. Electricity to supply the nations needs. It must rely on alternate energy sources. Take away wind subsidies and give it to coal fired generation to modernize our most reliable power source.

Try living near them. Peace & quiet are gone. Not green, Not clean. Just go walk near one.

I use to live in a peaceful country setting. I am now surrounded by 7 industrial wind turbines within 1 mile, creating a hell on earth from thee noise. Your beers are off my list.

AB needs to do their home work and reach out to those effected by these projects; destroying the natural environment to save it is not the answer.

We are suffering in Dekalb County, Missouri because of Industrial Wind Turbines. Our neighbor put one 1800 ft. from our home. That was the end of our beautiful countryside, our peace and quiet. We don't get sleep, I have horrible migraines and ear problems from the turbines. I will boycott Budweiser beer forever.

No, Wind towers are notthe answer as rht do nothing to help our ecosystem but rather detract from it. Noise and visual pollution for starters, totally inefficient, they only make money from tax subsidies and government guaranteed loans, nothing in it for the common man but more misery. Mountain top blasting, herbicide application, removal of carbon sequestering forest irreparable damage to flora and fauna, clearcutting, poisoning of water, I can go on and on, but you will do what you will do.
I always did appreciate a good Fosters Ale anyway!

Dear Anheuser-Busch,
Shame on your company to air such an ad on prime time television when it is common knowledge that this is an extremely controversial issue across our country and requires deep research before making a judgment on this issue and going to extremes such as airing this ridiculously misleading commercial! Just look at the countryside you apparently filmed this commercial. It's in a remote area with NO house in sight. Wind companies are targeting rural communities who do not want these massive structures that have been proven to pose health, environmental and infrastructure issues for residents and communities. The thoughtlessness of airing this commercial during the Super Bowl should be an embarrassment to your company and I believe that it should be retracted until your company does their research to learn how ludicrous this commercial truly is. It's a real shame that your company didn't use better judgment when deciding to air a commercial on a topic that is NEGATIVELY sensitive to a huge audience throughout our nation. This is certainly a way to "alienate" people from your customer base and I suggest that you consider how this may negatively affect your business. Extremely poor judgment! It's sad that your company has become another victim of the evil tactics of wind companies.

We need more companies to look into "clean energy". However, these companies need to do their research first. Wind turbines is not the answer, there is too much data to support how Wind Turbines are not clean energy. Anheuser-Busch you got it really wrong and I can't support your company.

Dear Bud,
Sorry, you have hitched your clydsdale wagon not to a star, but to a stooge. One of the first men I met who spoke of the impact of wind turbines, spoke of their impact on his ponies. No doubt his hackney ponies were smaller than your clydsdales, but they share similar genes. After the wind turbines started up near his farm, his ponies kicked the wall down in their stable, and when he went to see, found they were standing "all lathered up" as if they had been running. Could this be attributed to the wind turbines in his neighbourhood? Not easily, but it sure is interesting anecdotal information. Those ponies had no hate of wind turbine operators, but surely were impacted. Since then I have spoken to over one hundred people more who have been adversely impacted since wind turbines started up in their neighbourhood. Please do your research and pull the ad, as it will do Budweiser more harm than good.

Busch you jumped on the “clean energy” bandwagon and landed in the manure spreader. Your marketing department didn’t do their homework and has left your company appearing dishonest with claims that are impossible. You can not be relying totally on wind energy. Time to let the public know you made a mistake and do damage control. Since you publically made the rediculous claim you should publicly explain. I’ll be awaiting your ‘new and improved to be accurate commercial.

Big wind is trying to site industrial wind turbines close to homes, schools, and natural preserves for wildlife. There are too many negatives health issues for humans and deaths to wildlife to proudly advertise in their behalf. Remove that commercial!

Try actually living with this 600 meters from your home. It is appalling that Budweiser would make it seem like it's the "NORM" in this commercial. I for one will be boycotting anything from Budweiser !!!

No emissions have been reduced anywhere in the world by wind turbines! Emissions increase because of the added gas or coal plants needed to back the turbines up when the wind doesn't blow! A complete and utter farce world wide. Do your research BUD, Pull that obnoxious ad!
