    Wind turbines do in fact cause harm

    Such as…? Property values of coastal golf courses?

    Also, do you mean low frequency noise like this?

      Wind turbines do take up space, cause deaths and disproportionately affect large birds of prey which are already very stressed due to habitat loss etc. They require roads and cause mayor disruptions when transported. At least around here.

      They are much better than fossil power, though.

      Also, data centers tend to be built in industrial parks and not in residential areas, but america may just be built different.

          I talked on large birds of prey, not birds. But yes.

        They don’t kill birds though, that’s propaganda

          They do. Just not a lot. Birds are flimsy dainty things
