So all industrial wind farms do is; destroy pristine landscapes, kill birds and bats and make rent - seeking corporatists very rich.

Bird lovers have long criticized the number of birds and bats killed by wind turbines and the proposition of humongous facilities makes conservation groups nervous.

That problem — * exasperated sigh * — is this: if the RSPB is really concerned about the potential disturbance to wildlife of a few noisy lorries and drill rigs (which, let's not forget, are only up for a short period, after which they are replaced by a silent extraction device called a Christmas tree), how come it's so cheerfully complacent about the epic numbers of rare birds and protected bats which are sliced and diced (or, in the case of bats, barotraumatised — i.e. made to implode) by the industrial wind turbines which the RSPB not only champions but from which it benefits financially.

On 12 January 2012, at the First Scientific Congress on Wind Energy and Wildlife Conservation in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, the Spanish Society of Ornithology (SEO / Birdlife) made public its estimate that, yearly, Spain's 18,000 wind turbines may be killing 6 to 18 million birds and bats (1).

Studies also show with certainty that given good physical condition, large numbers of migratory birds and bats cross the lake, many of them making the long journey after stopping at the shoreline to rest and feed.»

>> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> > Nah make the Hansen's and Gores and Gleicks take the bat - chomping, bird - slicing eco-crucifixes down with tools they have to made themselves out of rocks and wood.

Post-operation, the numbers of bat deaths and bird kills far exceed what was expected from the wind turbines, noise complaints are being made more frequently as a result of more powerful turbines, and wind power companies have abused their approvals by removing trees from protected woodlands, for example, or placing turbines on sites not consistent with the approvals.

Unbiased studies into bird and bat impact, the effect of wind farms on property values, noise, sunlight - chopping, etc. should also be made easily and freely available.

* the amount of bird deaths, bat deaths and the small comparative amount of CO2 actually offset by the use of wind turbines does not make sense.

And the same for solar and wind, etc — let's not put solar power plants in the middle of wildlife sanctuaries, let's protect birds and bats, but maybe we devote resources to identifying places where solar and wind can go that have the energy resource and are not too ecologically sensitive, and give the industry a roadmap sooner rather than later so that it can make plaAnd the same for solar and wind, etc — let's not put solar power plants in the middle of wildlife sanctuaries, let's protect birds and bats, but maybe we devote resources to identifying places where solar and wind can go that have the energy resource and are not too ecologically sensitive, and give the industry a roadmap sooner rather than later so that it can make plaand wind, etc — let's not put solar power plants in the middle of wildlife sanctuaries, let's protect birds and bats, but maybe we devote resources to identifying places where solar and wind can go that have the energy resource and are not too ecologically sensitive, and give the industry a roadmap sooner rather than later so that it can make plaand bats, but maybe we devote resources to identifying places where solar and wind can go that have the energy resource and are not too ecologically sensitive, and give the industry a roadmap sooner rather than later so that it can make plaand wind can go that have the energy resource and are not too ecologically sensitive, and give the industry a roadmap sooner rather than later so that it can make plaand are not too ecologically sensitive, and give the industry a roadmap sooner rather than later so that it can make plaand give the industry a roadmap sooner rather than later so that it can make plans.

The V2 turbines are made from steel and aircraft - grade aluminum, are said to be quiet (less than 5 decibels over ambient noise levels), vibration - free, safe for birds and bats, and need no grid power to start spinning.

The expert quoted for the article made the following statement «Biologically significant impacts to any bird or bat species, including those that are endangered and threatened, are highly unlikely».

Trust us, watching them swoop, swirl and call (the sound bats make) around your garden on a summer's evening once the birds are tucked up for the night is pretty cool and a spectacular site - just ask Dracula!
