"Ask most people, and the image of wind turbines as bird killers still persists, often amplified by anti-renewable rhetoric. But if you look at the hard data, a different story emerges. It turns out that while wind turbines do kill birds, they are statistically insignificant compared to the bigger killers we have in our cities and in our bedrooms. In fact, when you factor in climate change, wind power might actually help birds."
Data not only shows the relative impact of wind turbines on bird deaths, but also gives us the insight to reduce their impact further.
