Rodent populations flourish in wind turbine areas due to the reduction of predator birds.

OK, here's the right one.

Is that the reason that the food at KFC tastes a bit funny these days?

93 million? per year? I cry bullcrap.So what is your estimate, and the science behind how you come to your scientific conclusion?
To: WENDLE
Wind generators will not last 50 years, much less “thousands”.

With that many killed you would think there would be some videos out there for a few of them. I see none.

39 Million birds? Isn’t this what the left wants... to lessen their population, for more room for humans...
oh wait, I have that mixed up, they want less humans, more birds.

If I cared about wind power, which I don’t, I would defend it by saying: evolution. Birds that learn to stay away from windmills will leave more little birdies to group up into the future.

We don’t have Wind Turbines here ,we have too much wind and tons of Oil
To: george76
Has anyone ever done the thermo on what is actually taking place at a wind turbine? It produces energy by doing work. Theoretically, there is a slight temperature drop between the upstream and downstream air especially across the huge wind turbine farms in the US and Europe. Does this not affect global climate? WE are taking energy out of the air which means that we are cooling it.

That’s a drop in the bucket; cats kill from 1.4 billion to as many as 3.7 billion birds in the continental U.S. each year, according to a recent study.

Cats win!
"Cats: 365 million to 1 billion"
I can believe it. A month ago in one week, my two cats brought an assortment of catches to our backyard deck, of birds, snakes, gophers and mice. I wondered how they caught birds until I saw them make a run at a tree, climbing the tree trunk and branches to go after birds high up in the tree.

For the love of God, someone please photoshop a picture of a wind farm with a KFC located beneath each turbine.

KFC doesn't use 'road kill'.
They grow their own.
