Manic views with no
factual support frequently get rushed into conversations about renewable
energy.

| Birds and wind farms are generally comfortable bedfellows. |
One of the favourites is the number of birds killed by the
turbines of wind farms and they are frequently exaggerated and with absolutely no
factual support.
Climate Progress has looked at this and subsequently produced
charts to illustrate that while wind farms do kill birds, the numbers of deaths
from turbines is miniscule compared to other forms of energy, primarily coal.
A story headed: “CHART: How Many Birds Are Killed By Wind,Solar, Oil, And Coal?” illustrates the fallacy of any argument about the
dangers of wind farms.
