Obama's Bird-Killing Death Machines Bad for Environment
2020-02-16
[Free Beacon] Nearly all of President Barack H. Obama's "accomplishments" have been nullified by his physically and intellectually superior successor, Donald J. Trump. But while Obama's so-called legacy has been largely erased, majestic birds continue to suffer as a result of his bloodthirsty obsession with wind turbines.

The Obama administration, in the name of "climate justice," bent over backwards to install massive turbine farms across the country. As Obama's spinning death machines systematically dismembered countless bald eagles and other protected species, in what some have argued amounts to genocide, the Democratic administration granted waivers to exempt wind farms from federal laws prohibiting the murder of endangered birds. The slaughter continued.

Many have argued that, when it comes Obama's insatiable lust for bird flesh, the cruelty is the point. A recent Bloomberg report substantiates this assessment. Turns out the wind turbines aren't as environmentally sustainable as advertised. The massive fiberglass blades‐some as long as football fields‐need to be replaced after several years but can't easily be recycled or even transported. As a result, they're starting to pile up like the discarded corpses of murdered birds in landfills across the country, where they'll remain "forever," in the words of one expert:

#2  Yes indeed, vertical cylinders. So much money has been allocated and insider deals a transition is ill timed. This is a problem as scrap piles grow or dead units are left standing.

#1  Actually a huge problem. We have a lot of eagles here and if someone put up a mill, gone. As bad as those solar tower cookers. Save the planet, kill the birds.

By the way, why the hell not build them as vertical cylinders? Guessing costs.
