I'm being conservative, actually. At one mountain pass -- Altamont in California -- they average almost 5,000 dead birds a year from windmills. That's just ONE mountain pass covered in windmills.
However, the numbers are all over the place. Some estimates range as high as a quarter million (I think that's high), but others think it's closer to 80,000 dead bird per year. There is a lot of politics in dead bird numbers, and I don't know who to trust.
I can say this though: tens of thousands of birds are killed every year thanks to the tree-hugger green technology. And for what reason?
Seriously: for what reason...?
>> tens of thousands of birds are killed every year thanks to the tree-hugger green technology And for what reason?
To avenge the pterodactyls that died to make petroleum, you right-wing nazi.
... Wait! That doesn’t even make SENSE! Crap! The cognitive dissonance is overwhelming! Where’s my bong...
“Seriously: for what reason...?”
My best guesses: (a) $$$$ and (b)liberalism is a mental disorder. I would like to hear the green weenies explain why they will destroy farming businesses for a minnow, while allowing bird kill for ‘green technology’ industry.
