If you take 2008 figures, 11 Deaths and 1.798TkWh (PetaWh) that means it is almsot 20 deaths per PWh, nuclear is 90 according to that forbes article (not that it has any credibility)
So Wind is much safer than nuclear.
Duoh, my mistake, so 270 deaths per year should be expected based on 2008 wind power generation, and the anti-wind farm site documents 11 deaths in 2008.
there were 145 wind farm fatalities in the UK alone from 2009 - 2013 145 people died working on wind turbines
From your link, "17 bus passengers were killed in one single incident in Brazil in March 2012", is there a Brazil in the UK ?
Dont get sucked in by prooganda.
It would be easier to accept if the numbers where not coming from an anti-wind farm group, but to answer my own question, deaths can occure from wind power from
- Transport/Construction
- Structual failure (from storms)
- Ice throw (impact within 140m)
- Turbine failure (anti-wind farm group says turbines need to be 2km away to be safe)
It looks like a large chunk of the 146 deaths in the history of Wind Power are attributable to transport and consturction. Which i think should be attributable to general construction risk, unless there is specific evidence that wind tower transport and construction is inherently more dangerous that other things like tall buildings.
Forbes artical says 150 deaths deaths/trillionkWhr from wind power, but your link cant find 150 total deaths in the history of wind power.
Total energy consuption in 2008 was 143,851 TWh, and wind in 2010 was 2.5% of the total energy generation (and growing fast), perhaps its was 1.25% in 2008. So 143851*0.0125 =1798 TWh from wind.
Your link says 150 deaths per TWh, which equates to 270,000 people beign killed eveyr year from wind power. Do you believe that ?
You do society a great injustice by spreading mis-truths.

actually it wasnt per year, its per trillion kWh, still my question is the same, how does wind energy kill people.
You say 90 people per year die from Wind energy, I call BS.
How does wind energy kill people ?
Perhaps its GNOME's culture is broken, as evident from previous design decisions, gettign more women involved does seem to me to be a good way to try and shake up the existing cultural dysfunction.
If you RTFA you would realise that tl;dr is for inter...nubs.
Did Qualcom also announce their commitment to binary only drivers and refusal to work with the free and open source software communtiy ?
Qualcom are just another greedy corp trying to take everyones stuff.
Are you new to electronics?
If he is new to electronics he would have already experienced many different methods of physically locking things in place, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
Can you explain why you think physically locking things in place is NOT a trivial exercise for a phone ?
Almost every failing of a computer can be related to where the OS sits.

I would fight for their right to express those views
But would you fight for the right to express your views if you dont have the right to record the experiences that document where those views come from.
In my initial post i was tyrign to highlight the hypocracy between promoting freedom of speech (right ot be a bigot) and a right to privacy in public (banning google glasses).
Freedom of speech is pointless is your expreineces are limited,
or do you think freedom of expression is only necessary for fiction.
In other news in Australia our Attorney General is defending free speech, in particular the right to express racist views.
So if you record someone being a racist in a public place, the racist calls the cops and get the witness to racism put in jail.

Yes, and all other envirnmentally damaging power sources.
The answer is renewables, everyone knows it, some people are too cowardly to admit it.
Representational state transfer (REST) is an architectural style consisting of a coordinated set of architectural constraints applied to components, connectors, and data elements, within a distributed hypermedia system. REST ignores the details of component implementation and protocol syntax in order to focus on the roles of components, the constraints upon their interaction with other components, and their interpretation of significant data elements

its a framework ?
