WTF is PETA? Whales, Brazil’s cats, other animals, I’m sure, dying because of this BS.

The World is in a Climate Emergency. Pumas need to do their part.

That’s just because there aren’t enough wind farms. If there were a hundred or a thousand times as many windmills the big cats would get used to them and all would be well. Let’s get this started by clear-cutting the Amazon to make way for responsible, sustainable, environmentally-friendly wind farms.

These stupid things are causing far more problems than benefits. I hate them.

I say we take off and nuke the whales from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

Nuclear is by far the best way to go as it generates the most with the least overall cost. Its biggest problem is too many elites are making too much money on solar and wind. In the end if government is promoting something it’s all about the money.

Well, what can you expect from Brazil. They “elect” a piece of commie trash who promptly hounds his conservative opponent out of the country and into jail.
Sound familiar?

Winds farms are virtue signaling and money laundering for the CCP — a cut comes right back to every politico who voted for them.

We can’t have dams or irrigation because of snail darters, but windmills killing Jaguars and Pumas, no problem for the enviro whackos. The hypocrisy of the Left is staggering.

Orders of magnitude more people will die due to climate change policy than any change in the natural climate.

Too bad for Jaguars and pumas and all kinds of whales and birds of prey seeing their demise via windmills as long as the Greeniacs are happy with AOC’s and their “Green Screw Deal” .

" These stupid things are causing far more problems than benefits"

The blades are a problem too. They are difficult to dispose of, cause even more damage.

Truth be known, the people who came up with this, don't care about the the planet.

They're making money, that's their only concern. Big cats, birds, whales exc...being harmed don't matter to them.

Losing all jaguars of no importance compared to losing the spotted owl
