       Wind turbines kill birds. While this is true, it misses an important piece of context: Fossil fuel power plants kill 35x more birds per GWh than wind turbines do."The wider use of wind energy can save wildlife and birds as it displaces more harmful sources of electricity."In other words, the best way to protect birds is to displace fossil fuels. #ClimateAction #EndFossilFuel https://michaelthomaswrites.substack.com/p/wind-turbines-arent-the-greatest

       @sabinehiller I would not be surprised if this is true under scrutiny.. though I do wonder if this accounts for the amount of land that must be destroyed... a power plan requires far less land per GwH than turbines do... I'd also like to see this compared to nuclear.
