Doesn’t say thousands of golden eagles are killed every year.

Just one farm in California killed over 20 last year, not to mention red-tailed hawks and other almost endangered raptors.

“At the infamous Altamont Wind Resource Area alone, more than 2,000 Golden Eagles have been killed by the wind turbines there.”

In one year?

No. Since when I do not know. But the guess is around 100 per year. And that number is expected to rise as more and more turbines are out up around the country. The total number of birds killed in one year is around 140,000 to 328,000 in North America alone. I’m not saying Climate Change is false or that Green Renewable energy is bad, but Wind Turbines are one of the most deadly forms of green energy. (Switch to Nuclear!!)

A boulder is a natural object, windmills are man-made instruments that kill raptors. The government knew this, and specifically put into the regulations that windmill operations are exempt from federal laws on protected species. But I'm sure there are government funded scientists who will come up with a study claiming climate change is responsible for the diminishing numbers of raptors.
