Look for a migration of coyotes and foxes to those areas, to feast on the carcasses of charred birds.

Its not like that - its a million times worse. There is no comparison between an isolated oil rig and a many miles long and many miles wide field of 1,000 foot high windmills generating huge number of mega-volts.

But then you can take your knowledge and reassure all the thousands of commercial fishermen and all those onshore jobs they generate, including all the seafood restaurants, that they are not going to be out of business when the European companies finish installing several thousand windmills in each of the dozen blocks. I’m sure none on them ever heard of oil rigs.

You do know that the commercial fishing there uses bottom drag nets and a scallop trawls, right? You do know that all of that equipment will foul on the cables crisscrossing the bottom, right? You do know that as the scallops and clams die off, the fish will leave, right?

LOL. You obviously have never been at seaside or offshore in the Gulf of Mexico. There are LOTS of oil rigs out there.

Show me the data...that shows the fish will disappear and why?

"You do know that the commercial fishing there uses bottom drag nets and a scallop trawls, right? You do know that all of that equipment will foul on the cables crisscrossing the bottom, right? You do know that as the scallops and clams die off, the fish will leave, right?"

All of that is irrelevant. Your statement was that the presence of "electrical cables and vibration" would cause the fish to depart. Prove it.

"So long, troll.

I came in late and don't even know what your argument is about, but when you resort to name-calling you've lost the debate.

Nope...just trying to get the facts. You keep dancing around with a lot of suppositions, none of which have addressed your initial comment.

I know some of the facts from oil platform experience. So I have done some checking on what is published online. Those facts DO NOT match the comments you made in any respect. So I ask for your sources. You refuse to provide them.

It ain't me that is the "troll" here.

You get 400-500 MW-hours per year per acre

A typical auto plant will consume approx. several hundred thousand megawatt-hours (MWh) of electricity per year.

I think a wind turbine produces 1 GWH of elec. per year which means it would take at least 200 turbines to keep an auto plant running.

Neither solar nor wind is viable.....
