Indeed. This is non-story.
That alternative forms of power kill wildlife is regular talking point of the entrenched fossil fuel energy giants. As if coal fired power plants and oil fields are wildlife sanctuaries. I'd be interested in who is pulling the strings on this one at the LA Times.
- stinos 10y agoThis is not a non-story, at least for me. I didn't know about it and I find it interesting. Then again, I know 6000 is probably peanuts in comparision with, wild guess, birds and other species dying from cancer or other diseases because of the resulting smokes/particles/toxins released by burning stuff to get energy. Or maybe worse: whole species going extinct because their land is put under water to build a dam.
- baron816 10y agoThe politicians they own also shameless love talking about those birds as well. And yes, fossil fuels kill several orders of magnitude more birds per year than renewables. Still, PV is a better source anyway.
- monk_e_boy 10y agoI dunno, I think it is a good bug report. Would be great to solve.
