Also note how low wind turbines actually are on that list. The oil industry lives to harp on the number of birds killed by wind turbines, but you never hear them about the much larger number of birds killed by vehicles.

Still worth reducing every number on that list of course, but keep some perspective.

    Many of these graphs were made to show that windmills do not really contribute to bird death.

    Well it's not like we have windmills anywhere anymore now that we have electricity. You might be thinking about wind turbines, which aren't very good for milling, but can be used to generate electricity that can then be used for an electric mill
