The fact that a cell tower company can’t put a climber on a tower when there’s a hawk actively nesting on it without risking a $100k fine, but wind farms kill them with impunity, is something that really, really needs to be shoved up the Left’s collective ass.

Funny, isn't plastic made of oil? Don't these Wind Turbines use lots of oil products in their construction? I mean like... rubber, plastics, etc?

You should see the trains and truck convoys needed to deliver these.

Can confirm. Worked in SD where they make these. The trucks and trailers are quite impressive to watch them haul these

(at 6 MPG)

Even the trains up here in Canada are insane. We see like 50 propellers going on one bamf train. I mean, it's cool that it's another power source, but damn, I'm not a fan of the side effects.

And the blades apparently aren’t recycled, so they bury them, per another post today.

its true. And I think the materials ARE recyclable, but the damn things are so big that there are no recycling facilities that can handle them.

Maybe, instead of our side always resorting to the "what if it was us" classic retort, this picture and the thousands like it need to start being blasted everywhere. We need to start pushing back on these idiots trying to destroy our world with their idiotic, evil mindset and policies that kill and leave many without power during a polar chill.

I hate these things, the ground around them is always littered with birds, bats dead from those blades. Who the hell comes up with this crap.

tree hugging environmentalists, apparently. They love this stuff!

And if the wind turbines were renewable energy, then why are they frozen and not renewing anything right now? In fact, people are freezing to death. Plus like the picture says, they kill birds just like the eagle in the picture; our national bird.

Do research on the solar kill zones destroying the desert.

Read this jackass environmentalist do mental acrobats to justify wind vs. birds.

He at a fork in the road and has almost red pilled himself. Almost...

I’m not sure that this pic is accurate.

Those turbines do not spin like helicopter blades.

It’s accurate. Wind farms kill millions of birds every year, and they somehow aren’t subject to the Migratory Birds Act.

“Guys, I’m not sure this picture, that implies nothing other than this bird was killed somewhere (or somehow) in a wind farm, is accurate; and I will soon link you to an image stating that wind farms need to be placed away from birds because they contribute to millions of them dying every year.”

“Also, guys, you’re wrong about wind farms killing millions of birds. So here’s a link to something that says wind farms need to be placed away from birds because they contribute to millions of them dying every year.”
