Why Renewable Energy Is Not the Ultimate Solution to Climate Change
Story by B.Sc. Jessica Taylor

Wildlife Impacts
Wind turbines, often hailed as a pillar of sustainable energy, come with their share of hidden costs. One primary concern is the threat they pose to wildlife. Birds and bats, which traverse the skies in large numbers, can fall victim to turbine blades. The rapid movement of the blades can be nearly invisible to these creatures, resulting in thousands of bird and bat casualties annually. This is especially problematic in poorly sited locations, where the placement of turbines coincides with avian migration paths. Even though efforts are being made to mitigate these impacts with better planning and technology, the danger remains significant. Wildlife conservationists emphasize the need for careful site evaluation before erecting turbines. It's a balancing act between harnessing wind energy and preserving wildlife, reminding us of the broader challenges of environmental conservation.

"Why Renewable Energy Is Not the Ultimate Solution to Climate Change"

There's a problem here the author fails to comprehend.

That is... there IS NO "climate change" -- at least none of note that is man-caused.

And whatever "change" there is... is natural and there's no "solution" possible other than to learn to adapt to it...
