I will never be convinced that solar on a large scale is a good thing.
how long are real Americans going to tolerate these ungodly enemies of our republic, who are instigating all this insanity to destroy us and our way of life ?
Told ya...
But hey, what are a few endangered species, compared to the greater glory of the Radical Liberal agenda, and filling a Democrat crony’s pockets with tax money?
The panels may be attracting birds to their doom.
We had an old hunting trick to make ice look like open water. Set a few decoys on it and limit out quick.
Good intentions from the eco-libtards kill more birds via windfarms and solar cookers than anything deliberate from other energy forms.
And since they can’t ever admit they are wrong about anything, they will defend the killings and give themselves exemptions and keep building more, despite the body counts going up and the ecological damage they continue to foist on us.
Look at ethanol gas and the fact it contaminates groundwater MORE than just gas alone. We still have ethanol being forced on us. They can’t say they were wrong. We have some republicans that do the same damn thing on ethanol too. they get too much money from it.
The solar farms are temples erected by the Earth Muffins in order to worship the Earth Mother and provide votive offerings to beseech the gods to bring their wrath down upon the heads of all humans infesting our planet. Birds don’t matter.
Solar and windmills are sacred to the left. They don’t care if birds die.
If we put these green technologies together we can start a restaurant.
Let the windmills slice and pluck them, then let the fryer land on solar panels to roast them.
Roast owl... mmm.
global warming kills!
The Gaia worshipers at PETA must be conflicted.....
Tell me that a modern coal-fired generating station with pollution and particulate controls kills more wildlife than the wind and solar farms. Most power plants actually enhance wildlife as they have cooling ponds that provide habitat for birds and even recreation for humans.
And the Audubon Society is keeping silent.
Alternative energy works better when properly built at home without subsidies. That said, become more self-sufficient instead of giving your money to bureaucrats through their investments in local energy companies, and avoid the wood shortage to come.

[They work better in some places than most places.]
Poor birds, incinerated.
I have certainly been aware of wind farms killing many birds, but it never occurred to me that solar was also a big killer.
As long as the greenie environmentalists are happy and Michelle is proud of her country, what’s the problem?
How on earth with anyone with a brain think these mega solar plants are environmentally friendly?
Ivanpah is 3,500 acres for 392 megawatts (around half the output of one coal turbine.
3,500 acres of desert essentially paved with panels...5 square miles.
