Did you read a Donald Trump tweet? Because no reputable source has ever said wind turbines are a major risk to birds.
If you’re trying to save birds, the first place you should be looking is outdoor cats.

(How did this even become about him ?) And your second statement is laughably false as even elementary research would tell you. Do note that there are ~100 million cats and only ~70k wind turbines, if you use US as a reference. Cats are clearly not the top-predators of birds anymore.
- tw04 2y ago> I don't care about Donald Trump. (How did this even become about him ?) You said you “read” about turbines killing birds (shockingly with no citation). There is literally nobody else claiming such stupidity. > Do note that there are ~100 million cats and only ~70k wind turbines, if you use US as a reference. Cats are clearly not the top-predators of birds anymore. Do note, a tiny fraction of the 100m cats are outdoor cats. And yes, they are absolutely one of the top predators of birds and have been for decades.
