Do wind farms harm birds?

0

Some wind turbines have caused harm to some birds, but these problems primarily resulted from wind farms being placed in the wrong locations. Today’s wind turbines use new rotor and tower designs, and special care is taken with site locations to minimize harm to birds.

At some sites, particularly Altamont Pass in California, wind turbines have caused a regrettable increase in deaths of birds, including hawks and eagles. But today’s newer wind farms are sited to avoid such conflicts. Wind turbine manufacturers are also using new rotor and tower designs to minimize bird mortality.
