The linked video is about Ivanpah which in addition to the wildlife displacement, kills around 6000 birds each year by incinerating them mid light. At no point was that video purported to be related to wind energy. If you want to read up on the impact of wind energy, let me google it for you. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_impact_of_wind_power#Impact_on_wildlife https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_impact_of_wind_p... https://www.wind-watch.org/pix/displayimage.php?pid=26&fullsize=1 https://www.wind-watch.org/pix/displayimage.php?pid=26&fulls... http://batsandwind.org/research/post-construction-fatality-surveys/ http://batsandwind.org/research/post-construction-fatality-s... https://www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/wind-energy-takes-toll-birds-now-there-s-help-ncna866336 https://www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/wind-energy-takes-toll-... Each turbine requires the clearing of 5 acres of land around it. Each turbine 'powers 200 homes or so'. There are 128 million homes in the US. That's 640k turbines. That's 3.2m acres of land cleared of vegetation and wildlife just for turbines, nevermind access roads, energy storage, etc. Wind turbines currently supply 8% of US demand and at this scale they kill around 200k birds, 600k bats and ~10 people in maintenance accidents each year. Multiply those numbers by 12.5 to power all of US. Multiply those numbers again by 10 to power china. By 100 to power the world. Starting to get the sense of how absurd this idea is outside of small-scale feel-good wind farms that look past the ecological damage? France is what the future of sustainable and renewable power looks like. It's mostly nuclear. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_sector_in_France#/media/File:Electricity_production_by_sources_in_France.png https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity_sector_in_France#/... Wind and solar are simply inadequate to be compared to fossil fuels or nuclear for base load supply.
