I traveled in Germany last year, and the beautiful southern farmland was full of the ugly things. Half of them weren’t working. It would be one thing if they provided a lot of energy, but between the unreliability and their inefficiency, they are a worthless alternative. They only line GE’s pockets.

Admittedly, very conservative, and don’t like wind turbines swatting raptors out of the air. Cease! Raptor reproduction is not strong enough to justify the kill-off, and twice annual migration creates big exposure to those long-armed wind turbines.

But not so concerned about bats. Their numbers and habitat are huge.

Think of the damage these nasty little flying rodents and the remnants of the failed dinosaur regime do to those peaceful green wind generators. Let evolution teach them who is superior.

Once the molten salt spills cause some other kind of environmental fiasco, we’ll simply begin importing all our solar energy on transmission lines from the other side of the world during the night.

Lessee….probably have to come through Russia and the Aleutians , probably originally from the Gobi desert or maybe from Australia across the Pacific.

I got it! We can import it all from the deserts of the middle east!

No worries. At least we wont be using those horrible, incredibly efficient fossil fuels and then Gaia’s blood will finally be safe from the parasitic vermin known as man.

Liberals love to kill…anything. Birds, bats and babies.

I disagree with liberals.

and sitting still during the summer when it’s 105* and not a breath of wind in site. The most useless things in the world when we have the highest need for electricity.

Democrats, the party of cold blooded killers.

I’m heavily invested in hamsters.

Actually, I only have two, but if you know hamsters, you know that that’s a potentially HUGE investment.

Best thing is, they’ll work for popcorn, so you can use the same fields for ethanol production and hamster power.

On fire island. A few years ago, I was interested in doing the maintnance through my company, I did my homework and found out the whole project was sealed up tight… no local vendors… everything from the German firm who would handle the sale, installatoin and maintnance.
Nothing for the local Native guy…
All sewed up.
So, soon, we should be processing Bald Eagles.
If those guys think they can pull into town, run the whole game and head on out with the money in their pockets, I will be the first to film our Eagles being blended. Minced. Diced…. whatever.
But the big thing is… it is a stupid project. The only guys making money are the Germans in this case.
That our Native Corporation fell for it is insanity. They’ll hemorrage money all the way untill the removal and environmental reclamation is complete, and not a single windmill remains…
I guess they don’t call us dumb natives for nothing.
Kill the Fire Island Windmill Project.

>>Absurdity aside, this prosecution is all the more remarkable because the wind industry each year kills not 28 birds, or even a few hundred, but some 440,000<<

Now some perspective from a recent wapo article on the topic:
Wind farms currently kill far fewer birds than the estimated *100 million* that fly into glass buildings, or up to *500 million* killed yearly by cats.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/wind-farms-under-fire-for-bird-kills/2011/08/25/gIQAP0bVlJ_story.html

The stupidity of the left is beyond staggering.

Eventually the birds and bats will figure out not to run into those things the way squirrels and deer around my neck of the woods have figured out that cars will kill them…

Seriously, any greenie/lefty/darwinist should be all for evolution moving forward… otherwise they’re hypocrites in my opinion…
