Germany’s climate and energy policy is the
main threat to bio-diversity. Politicians, however, have closed their eyes from
the destructive effects of the rampant expansion of renewable energy....
The Lesser Spotted Eagle.....only 108 breeding
pairs remain in Germany. It finds less and less food in the declining grassland
and open meadow. The distances between breeding sites and food areas are
getting longer and are also increasingly endangered by wind turbines.....
Of
Germany’s 115 most common bird species, 51 have declined significantly in the
last 20 years. The head of the biosphere reserve in Schorfheide, Martin Flade,
speaks of a “biodiversity disaster” which is due to “the hectic climate, energy
and agricultural policy
Today, 200,000 dead bats are found under
wind turbines annually. The clever animals locate the rotors, fly through them
and in the lee behind the turbines, where the air pressure decreases sharply,
the bats’ lungs burst. Particularly affected are the noctule, the Serotine, the
Small Noctule or the parti-colored bat. The female bat only gives birth to one
or two young per year, thus these useful insectivores are endangered by a
further uncontrolled construction of new wind turbines......
Red
Kite is no longer safe in this state with its 3,200 wind turbines. About 300
Red Kites are killed annually in Brandenburg alone by wind turbines.....To Read More.....
