Tornado Alley (PROG)

[shtsqsh]

Clean coal is still a pipe dream. But with coal industry money in her purse, Carly is all too willing to proliferate that illusion as well as putting herself in the same republican sandbox of playing loose with the facts about climate science.


Btw, your quote confirms she was either lying or wildly exaggerating truth about bird kill from wind turbines.

Wind turbines kill far fewer birds in North America than do cats or collisions with cell towers.
...
Wind turbines kill between 214,000 and 368,000 birds annually — a small fraction compared with the estimated 6.8 million fatalities from collisions with cell and radio towers and the 1.4 billion to 3.7 billion deaths from cats.

It has been estimated that from 100 million to well over 1 billion birds are killed annually in the U.S. due to collisions with human-made obstacles, including vehicles, aircraft, buildings and windows, powerlines, communication towers, smokestacks, and other structures.
