The Obama administration is refusing to turn over documents related to enforcement of environmental laws at wind farms where dozens of eagles and other protected birds have been killed, House Republicans charged Wednesday.

Rep. Doc Hastings, R-Wash., said the Fish and Wildlife Service has engaged in a “deliberate slow rolling of documents and answers” for nearly a year. Hastings is chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, which has been seeking to compel the wildlife agency turn over internal documents related to its enforcement of laws protecting eagles and other birds.

An Associated Press investigation last year revealed that the administration was not prosecuting wind energy companies for killing eagles and other protected birds. …

I was watching Blacklist on Hulu last night and ended up yelling at the TV when an asinine anti fracking commercial (forests laid to waste, mountains blown up), pro wind farm(green energy) ran.

Wind farms wack Eagles, California Condors, and Spotted Owls dead.

No complaints from the Sierra Club.

This is not so surprising since the same Sierra club that rails about the rape of the Arizona Desert (” the most fragile ecosystem on the planet ) by people who ride ride motorcycles in the desert have absolutely no problems with one million illegals trashing the entire desert and using it as an outdoor outhouse along the border.

We need a conservative conservation organization. Responsible, rational preservation. This is absurd, and I am a redwood and redbud tree hugger.

The many wind farms that exist should determine if a certain sound will alert those birds. Why not a whistle at the end of each blade?
