Obviously building one wind turbine is less disruptive, but you need hundreds to get the same output, and they only work when it’s windy.

It’s always windy. We live on a spinning planet.
Solar needs sun. Nuclear needs water to cool. Hydro needs water.
If you combine solar and wind you can replace many nuclear plants by just using the space we are already using.
