Reply to comment by EphraimJenkins in Norway: Thunberg joins Indigenous protests against turbines. The young environmental activist says green energy cannot come at the expense of human rights. A court order has deemed the turbines' location in Norway illegal, as they disrupt Sami reindeer-herding traditions by DoremusJessup

No, they can’t. The smaller their available terrain, the more likely disease outbreaks become. Worst case is that entire herds must be put down to stop the spread of disease. This is already an issue for the South Sámi herds which are operating in narrow corridors of nature that are being suffocated by infrastructure.

The reason why Greta and Norwegian environmentalists are against this is because it represents the exact type of careless mentality towards nature which has caused the global climate crisis in the first place.
