You don't give a **** about eagles or birds.

Conservatives dissing wind power by crocodile tears over bird deaths do not impress me.

How about this..."windfarms" are worthless ventures because the cost more money than they produce.

They do?

They certainly do not have a high operating efficiency.

They are one of the lower load output power options out there, but the "fuel" to run them is essentially free. They have a load output of about 30% compared to 40-80% (depending on fuel type and averaging about 50%) for other sources of power output. Once built, wind turbines require very little maintenance. I am curious whether or not there is info out there on the cost to output ratio of a wind turbine as to other fuel burning power generators.

Oh, and poor eagles.

Aren't migratory birds killed to protect planes? just sayin

[Pony Boy]

So if killing Bald eagles is ok with liberals, why do they get their panties in a wad over this?

Could ask my dad, he used to work on those and a lot of other power substations with the DoE. I'll see if I can get some figures.

[Rigs11]

eagles versus all that sea life? Not mention the economic impact on fisheries? or the environmental and climate impacts? you're an idiot

[Arkie]

Renewable energy at the expense of the ecosystem?

[barryr]

You mean yet another subject liberals can't be consistent on?
