Broken Wing: Birds, Blades and Broken Promises
Wind Turbines kill massive numbers of birds, are CO2 intensive, are inefficient, run intermittently and reward billionaires rather than common folk.
Learn more about the alternative wind turbine designs that are effective and safe. There are many alternative wind turbine choices that do no harm to birds or people. They are far more cost effective, as well.
“This book is a must read. After 30 years of environmental damage caused by windmills John’s book Broken Wing gives someone with no idea great truth of what is going on. Broken Wing set the course for real hard reality of when a raptor or any avian gets struck down in their own Habitat they will die, drug off and eaten by another predator. John explains that 30% of the windmills power is lost in the transmission from the blades to the generator.”

“I once thought windmills were great, but no more. The Sierra club and the wind industry won’t admit it, but these things are killing a million birds and a million bats per year – and they require carbon to be burned 70% of the time because they are so inefficient.”

Today’s wind turbines
- Kill millions of birds worldwide: raptors are threatened with extinction
- Require significant amounts of CO2 to manufacture
- Deliver electricity intermittently, at best
- Require enormous back up coal and gas fired power plants creating yet more CO2
- Can be unhealthy or harmful to local residents
- Are deadly – to core component manufacturers and maintenance personnel
- Have enormous costs – paid for by the taxpayer
There are many alternative wind turbine choices that do no harm to birds or people. They are far more cost effective, as well. Only the wealthiest investors take benefit from today’s wind industry. All of us pay higher prices for their indulgences.
My intention is to encourage awareness of the entire story – of effective design choices and of how to bring change to your local community.
Enjoy the many bird videos!
