New Study Finds That Wind Turbines Could Have Impact On Insect Populations, Food Chain
By P Gosselin on 3. May 2019
German DLR model computations show each year 1.2 trillion insects are killed by wind turbine rotors in Germany alone.
Wind energy shows there is no free lunch. Some major drawbacks of this “green energy†supply include blighting of the landscape, health damage from infrasound, and bird killing. Now insect killing is another that is currently emerging.
