Truth be known, I am too. I don’t like to see animals hurt or be killed needlessly.
It's a bit disconcerting, though, that right-wing idealogues are almost always stereotyped as nature haters. It's as ridiculous as it is untrue. Vocationally and avocationally, I'm immersed in the birding world, and many of the best birders I know keep their politics to themselves. Which in this rarified world means that they are probably conservative. It's the loud-mouthed punk environmentalists which give nature-lovers a bad name.
But to your original point, there is most definitely a schism between the "green" energy fruitcakes who promote wind power and the Audubon Society. The Audubon Society is against wind power (and I applaud them for that).
HOWEVER, this organization also believes in man-made global warming and all the leftist implications that entails. Because of that, I will NEVER support the Audubon Society. And I urge all others to shun it too.
Kinda sad an organization like that can't be above typical left-wing propaganda, but that's the way it is.
Zero more birds die with windmills than without.
There is merely a shift in what traits are more successful for survival.
