Wind energy is widely considered a clean and renewable resource, yet the environmental impacts of wind farm (WFs) installations, particularly on local climate ecosystems, remain underexplored large scale. This study presents comprehensive assessment long-term effects 250 WFs across China land surface temperature (LST) vegetation using remote sensing data. By comparing inside outside LST peak normalized difference index (NDVI) trends before after five years construction, we identified key changes. Results indicated that significantly increased nighttime by 0.20 °C decreased daytime 0.11 °C, with pronounced seasonal variability during daytime. A total 75.20% negatively impacted vegetation, no discernible seasonality in this effect. Geographical factors such as latitude, longitude, elevation showed weak correlations these impacts. Our findings provide valuable insights into consequences power development contribute to more informed planning for sustainable generation adaptation strategies.

This study aims to explore the practice of Christian ocean stewardship on Taiwan’s marine wind farm policy, with a particular focus critically endangered Taiwanese humpback dolphins (Sousa chinensis taiwanensis). Marine farms, while integral shift toward renewable energy, present complex ethical challenges due their adverse environmental impacts—particularly noise pollution, which poses serious threat vulnerable species. International laws have underscored importance preventing pollution. Although Taiwan has relevant and policies, implementation supervision in pollution are inadequate. examines anthropocentric frameworks that currently dominate development arguing they inadequately address moral obligations humans broader ecosystem. Through theological reflection grounded ethics, this research advocates for away from human-centered policies towards more holistic ethic acknowledges intrinsic value all creation. It emphasizes requires not merely reducing harm but actively participating restoration protection ecosystems, thus extending beyond utilitarian considerations human benefit. The plight dolphin serves as case exploring these tensions, highlighting how energy transition can inadvertently contribute biodiversity loss if approached caution responsibility. Building this, proposed four key principles guide future development. These advocate respecting nature, responsible management, continuous innovation, social participation transparency. approach only helps also provides new perspectives practical approaches applying ethics field protection.

To address the global warming issue, China is prioritizing development of clean energy sources such as wind and solar power under its “dual carbon target”. However, expansion these resources constrained by their intermittency spatial temporal distribution energy. This paper systematically reviews evolution reserves, potential, current status in from a geographical perspective. In conjunction with existing research, this anticipates future exploration realm wind–solar complementary or multi-energy development, viewed through lens resource quantity. The anticipated findings are intended to furnish theoretical foundation for further studies on utilization within China.
