Date: 10/4/25 5:30 pm From: Ken Gale <nuffsaid...> Subject: [nysbirds-l] BIRD FRIENDLY WIND ENERGY DO IT RIGHT! ECO-LOGIC Weds. October 8, 10 a.m. radio & internet WBAI, 99.5FM - Thanks for sharing!
There are wind energy advocates who think that birds are not compatible with wind energy and bird advocates who think wind energy is not compatible with birds. Fortunately, neither is true. Wind farms can be done badly or well and on this Eco-Logic, we'll describe the difference and expose the myths that are used to divide the environmental movement.
Wind-powered electricity is crucial for a safe, sane clean energy future. Birds are crucial to the balance of nature and healthy ecosystems. They ARE indeed compatible.
We'll explain lighting and siting that can be used to keep wind-powered electricity going without killing birds.
Our guest, Lewis Grove, American Bird Conservancy’s Director of Wind & Energy Policy, will explain what they call "Bird Smart Wind."
This is going to be an exttremely pro-wind as well as pro-nature radio show.
We open the show with news: following up on shrimp issues, remembering Jane Goodall, World Octopus Day, and a New York fire warning.
Our song for this episode is Jackson 5's “Rockin' Robin”.
Tune in on radio or internet to get more details.
