"Building enough wind turbines to supply half the world’s electricity would require nearly two billion tons of coal to produce the concrete and steel" Why not substitute green energy for coal energy? "two billion barrels of oil to make the composite blades." There was a saying at The Oil Drum... " burning oil for energy is like burning Picassos for heat". "What about the pollution and disposable waste? What is the answer to this?" Pollution laws and recycling. Pollution laws will happen when people who live in polluted countries care more about their environment than you do.
