Of course!
You may not remember, but some mohammedan cleric declared that it was against their ‘god’ to look up at the underside of a bird in flight.

So to them, What’s a bird or two?

That means the air around Ivanpah is superheated by concentrated solar power

Doesn't THAT contribute to global warming trends?

Doesn't that (superheated air) contribute to global warming trends?

I'd suspect so. Butterfly effect and all that.

Got to wonder how many birds all the wind farms are taking out each year too.

If somebody like you or I killed a bird on the protected species list, like a Golden Eagle, we would get a big fine and a year in prison. Rules only apply to us little people.

1400 birds is not very many. 2/3 of them are likely starlings, in which case, burn more.

6,000 birds in one year? That's nothing.

Feral cats are the leading cause of death among both birds and mammals in the United States, according to a new study, killing 1.4 billion to 3.7 billion birds each year.

The mammalian toll is even higher, concluded researchers from the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, ranging from 6.9 billion to 20.7 billion annually.

The analysis, published Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications, suggests that feral and owned cats pose a far greater threat than previously thought. One study in 2011 estimated that cats in the United States kill roughly half a billion birds annually.

It was SO hot around the Ivanpah Super Solar alternative energy plant today-

HOW HOT WAS IT?

It was so hot that the 500 degree air charred birds in mid-flight above it, and the FDA charged them with cooking food without a license.

Smells like global warming, eh?

The libs will probably pass a law that the power company has to put up signs in order to direct the birds to go around that area. Yes - libs are that delusional...

They’ll go belly up like the rest of them. 1.6 billion dollars down the toilet. any time a company says they have “largely solved” a problem, means they might be close to figuring it out, but it isn’t fixed yet.
