So time and time again I've seen you foaming at the mouth to bash wind farms as being anti bird. Yet just with 2 or 3 oil spills, fossil fuel companies have killed two times the amount of birds, not to mention affected countless other wildlife and contaminated water.
Why oh why is our great GFY conservationist Vendzilla only worried about protecting birds from wind farms? Are not all bird deaths equal or do you only care when bird deaths are related to renewable sources of energy? Why have we not seen you bring this up before Vendzilla? More importantly are you going to be sure to show the same disgust toward fossil fuels as you hold toward wind power?
Do you now plan to join Green Peace and tie your self to trees in the Forrest in order to protect bird habitats? Please tell us your plans on how to kill less birds.
