The harm caused by wind turbines isn't nearly as bad as you think.

    Before anyone starts shouting windturbines don’t kill birds because they saw this headline without reading the article, he is the key takeaway:

    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.

    Aside from the number being insignificant, there are efforts being made to minimize the amount of animals dying. The main solution is what is called bird curtailment - shutting the windmill off during migration activity.

    Here is an article if you want to know more: https://appliedecologistsblog.com/2024/05/30/a-safe-passage-protecting-migratory-birds-in-the-north-sea/
