Along with polar bears in ice floes drifting out to sea, a favorite image of the greenies is oil-soaked birds, flung before us every time there is an oil spill, even one so minor that the media expresses it in gallons, not barrels of oil, in order to make it seem large scale. The recent pipeline spill at Refugio State beach in California sounded much worse as 100,000 gallons than 2380 barrels. And pictures of oil soaked birds were ubiquitous.

Shhhhhh. Don't let that out. Besides, the pictures of some dead birds around a wind mill sliced and diced or fried near a solar panel farm aren't nearly as "dramatic" as some birds or seals covered in oil.

Hollywood is silent.

I’ve known for a long time this green energy was killing a lot more birds. How has this information escaped Hollywood and other liberals. When is Scarolette Johanson and George Clooney going to speak out?

In other news, cars kill more squirrels than pedestrians do.

Yeah, but -

solar & wind industry => democrat supporters
oil & coal => republican supporters.

And that’s all that matters to the left, really.

And what of the horror of birds killed by evil trees?
Many millions more birds die every year from misjudged flight paths through the forest that from these things.

If we just cut all the trees down, birds couldn’t run into them.

And let’s not get started about the horror against our avian brethren brought about by those emanations from hell...houses.
Who doesn’t find several murdered birds with broken necks on the side of the house every year? And then we cover our crimes with the lawn mower.

Oh the huge manatee.

Oil spills have far greater environmental impact that the birds that get killed by windmills and solar panels.
