It stands to reason then that if thousands of windmills are spread across the United States, many birds will become extinct.
The U.S. Energy Information Administration reports that windmill turbines last about 20 to 25 years, while some last only 14 years before becoming defunct and produce energy only when the wind is active. What is left is an eyesore of a gigantic tombstone depicting a killing field where thousands of birds have died.
These so called “clean energy” wind machines have blood on those blades. Is that what some of you want?
