In fact, the average windfarm probably kills more birds than this small oil spill will. That's actually quite deceptive. First of all, 46,000 gallons of crude PER DAY is not a "small oil spill". Please show the links that provide data on how many birds are killed via windmills. Reply: Lots of birds. Lots of raptors. The enviros were ecstatic about windmills here for awhile. But now they want to limit them because of the bird deaths. Major problem is they are build in grazing land. So lots of ground squirrels that the Golden Eagles and other raptors like for dinner. So, therefore, spilling 100s of 1000s of barrels of oil and polluting beaches is ok. -- Nom=de=Plume |
