Yes, the vast amount of cat owners do let their cats out.

Cats eat rodents, and Sparrows. Sparrow growth in more then waht cats kill.

You are a stupid twit.

So clearly, we should just throw our hand in the air not not try to make it better.

did you forget a zero?

really? go back and reread what you wrote. Do you really stand by that post?

1) The point is, its 28,000 birds in a place that has a lot less birds.

2) Maybe, but we don't know that until we get more info on the cause.

3) Wrong cost benefit. No one is saying don't build the plants. They are saying lets get more accurate data, and build plants that minimize bird death.

Of course you are assuming all birds are the same. Desert bird species tend to be lower in number, and there are more raptors. Comparing that to what cats catch, mostly a sparrow species, is fallacious thinking. In fact, we need a sparrow culling.

Because exactly zero chickens are killed by Solar furnaces.

yes, yes, I know its very hip to make shit up about Fast Food, but don't bother with the obvious retort.

And no one is talking about giving up solar thermal. WHat the are saying is, how do we minimize bird death(raptor).
Just like we have regulations to make cars safer for people.

and it's 30,000 not 40,000.
or under 10.7 people per 100,000. down from 26.5 per 100,000 in 1969.

1 every 2 minutes., not 3.

And since you haven't been paying attention, yes, people are also concerned with dams killing fish. This is why they built ways for the fish to get around a damn.

And an actual scientist did that experiment in 1973, and it worked.

CSPs can get over 1000 F. I've seen them direct mirror to a single spot in the air, and that spot lights you. Looks like a floats 'ball' of light. It does that because it's super heating the dust particle.

I use to drive by on fairly regularly when I live in Ca. One day I just drove in and talk to some people about it. They were very knowledgeable and nice

I"ve seen that as well. I'd be hard pressed to call it flying! It would be like me jumping over a fence while flapping my arms uncontrollable.

No, not owning to radiation. Is indian Point leaking radioactive materials?

"You morons are batting 0.0000"
Almost every one has been within error bars. Who ever is telling you otherwise is a liar.

What kind of idiot doesn't know there are difference species of birds, with different population and think cats bringing down sparrows is the same as a Solar plant taking down raptors?

"I'll pass on the latest climate change panic..."
Oh, that kind of idiot.

But we don't want to, because that waste is actually fuel; which we should be using.

No it isn't.

But they don't kill a lot of raptors. A billion sparrows when there are 100 billion sparrows has less of an impact.
