Killer Blades
Wind turbines blades batter birds, killing 20,000
to 37,000 a year in the U.S., according to a 2007 National Academy of
Sciences study, "Environmental Impacts of Wind-Energy Projects." In
contrast, at least 90 million birds die annually by flying into
buildings, more than 130 million die in collisions with power lines, and
millions more are killed by pesticides and domestic cats, according to
the study. (See References 5)
