Hi everyone, on the PBS news hour yesterday which for those of you who don't know is USA based news program featured daily at16-30 hrs on SBS 1 there was a segment on Windfarms in Oregon. The disastrous news was that thousands of small bats were being killed by the wind turbines.Death was caused not only by the blades hitting the bats but the differential in air pressure caused by the turbines caused blood vessels in the bats to rupture.Not very green energy after all. the beautiful Hawkesbury 60km N/W of Sydney ============================== To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send the message: unsubscribe (in the body of the message, with no Subject line) to: http://birding-aus.org ============================= |
