RE: The sad truth about wind power.

in #electricity7 years ago

That image is not really 100% correct, the "back up" plant would be off. Oh, and the number of birds killed by windmills is about 30k per year. Honestly, less when you consider how many die from cars, about 70million per year. Oh and how many die from running into buildings, about 100 million. Just saying.

They are also ugly as f. It also kills bats because of the change in air pressure...so much so that pesticide use goes way up in farmland areas.

So you would rather burn coal, a limited resource, and a pollutant, because you don't like the way it looks. Ok. And lets not worry about how much that would hurt the environment. Thats like not fixing a broken leg because it hurts to set it.
