Reply to comment by soneast in Wind power is built at an increasing pace but its effect on nature and animals is poorly known. Researchers investigated the impact of wind turbines on bat presence and activity in Finnish boreal forests. The results indicate that wind power repels bats and drives them away from important habitats. by universityofturku

I've read a similar study aboutthe effects of Windows turbines on bats at least a decade ago. It was carried out in the US. I dont think anyone is suppressing this, but maybe not enough solutions are being considered.

I wonder if switching to offshore entirely would be better. Studies on the effect of WT on marine life are still ongoing, but it seems less harmful to me.
