Well, I don't think you can argue with the punch line:
"Wind farms are one of the few sources of impacts to birds and bats
that are being systematically monitored. Most other forms of energy
generation do not monitor impacts. Nor do we have widespread
systematic monitoring of all the other human-related activities that
we inflict on species—such as collisions with cars, powerlines,
windows, poisoning, shooting, pollution, etc.
No data does not mean no impacts, it means no data."

It is interesting to note that Dr Hull works for Hydro Tasmania. I'm
not agreeing or disagreeing with her position, because I don't have
the background, the knowledge, nor the evidence to do so. But I have
noted in the past, that many of the scientists that try to downplay
our influence on the environment, such as global warming and oil
extraction, for example, are often employed by industry! Curious!
