There is no such thing as a bird or bat safe turbine with this open propeller design. These turbines are mass killers. They should not be paid for by taxpayers or ever built. And despite this industry's embellished energy reports, they also produce very little energy for society.
4
I'm not a biologist, but don't bats fly at night by echolocation? Knowing this, and considering this is an endangered species we'd like to save, wouldn't it make sense to simply turn off the turbines at night to protect the bats until the research is complete and another solution is reached?

Oil field work is not the only blue collar jobs Trump was talking about. His intent was to update our outdated and unsafe infrastructure. This takes people to build roads, bridges, buildings, dams, windmills, oilfield production facilities, pipelines and produce raw materials to support these projects. It'll be a long ...

This is the reality that Trump ignores when he lies to his blue collar supporters about jobs.

Well said. Mr.Manning has already concluded that the media even here in Canada are the enemy by his words and tone. He has had to work hard to put this steaming pile of 'Trump' togerther. Wonder how much dark money from the US supports this 'expert' group. Bet on it.
