That's ridiculous. The problem 'building a wind turbine' seeks to solve is "How do I turn this money into more money".

In market societies (eg most of the west) functionally speaking, the % of 'green power' delivered by environmental projects is a rounding error; it's essentially all delivered by people with capital attempting to obtain more capital.
