Are wind subsidies a price worth paying?

With global warming gathering apace, weather systems changing and movement of species because of habitat changes any renewable energy system is welcome over some toff's golf club. Just as an aside, we are subsidising Nuclear industry heavily; its costing 72Bn£ to decommision our old stations; divide that over the number of years generating, say 36 years for ease of division and you have 2bn£ subsidy per generating year. So Wind Energy seems a bargain. Plus it comes with insurance, rather than nuclear which has non. So please say to Mr Trump, should you get a chance, that he's an idiot and should stay out of our renewable energy industry.
