Virginia Irvine, who is with WindWise Massachusetts, nailed it with her July 22 letter titled, “Try living near a wind turbine before making baseless claims.”
I live in South Wellfleet, in very close proximity to the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary – Massachusetts Audubon.
That organization is about to begin the permitting process for the construction of what it calls a “micro wind turbine” that, if built, will stand 14.2 stories – to be built on its “bird sanctuary” lands.
A bird sanctuary proposing to construct a bird- and bat-killing wind turbine.
I have to ask: Just how far gone is this country anyway?
