    To the brave citizens of Ontario protesting against windfarms

    Fellow victims of the windfarm scourge: I am writing from Spain to voice our support to your demonstration at Queen’s Park in Toronto. I do it as President of Save the Eagles International, a platform dedicated to the preservation of biodiversity. Raptors, bats, and migrating birds stand to be decimated by windfarms worldwide, while bird societies are being used as shills by the wind industry.

    Wall Street Will Be Killing Many Condors

    Saving the Condor was one of the great collaborative environmental efforts over the last 25 years. It gave hope to a generation that witnessed the world environment rapidly eroding before their eyes. Teams of wildlife biologists, resource groups and government agencies that once were united in saving the condor from extinction are now turning their backs as Corporate America marches into Condor habitat. In Southern California Condor habitat is being invaded by thousands of lethal prop wind turbines and everyone . . .

    Astounding facts about wind turbines and why they kill eagles

    At the Altamont wind farm in California, over 50 Golden Eagles die each year.
