Stop killing bugs, birds eat bugs

oh. i found the sentence ``` The phenomenon of insect strikes can reduce the power output of wind turbines by up to 50 percent – this has been the subject of extensive research in both theory and practice. ```

that sounds crazy

why so much?

@aradeshInitial research has shown that the remains of flying insects on rotor blades can lead to large reductions in the efficiency of wind turbines and have motivated the establishment of a global cleaning industry for rotor blades

@aradesh I was driving through Idaho a few weeks ago, and we were hitting monarch butterflies every 20 seconds or so

was it slowing your car down by up to 50%?

Literal clouds of butterflies

xD

poor butterflies

Yea

insects affect aerodynamics of the blades, if they are not cleaned regularly they will get drag that will increase

@aradesh Yeah, imagine the bugs on the grill of your car, but it's all over the blades

and in some cases, you have tons of insect goo dragging on the blades

seriously, given how upside down left-winged politics is becoming, how long will it be until they're advocating omnicide?

Tim did get them to defend fascists yesterday on twitter

they'll conclude somehow that humans are evil, having babies is evil, so we should make ourselves extinct

@aradesh That's already a thing

On top of that, there's a lot more insects exactly at the height of the blades because they use the strong winds to travel more easily, the same winds the turbines use

@Fitzydog from the left, feminist types?

@aradesh That's been a thing for years

they can go remove them self from the gene pool first

they keep talking about castrating men, and women not having babies, so i see that it could end up going that way

Why do you think they are pushing abortions so much lol

there's also the environmental argument right? we're bad for the environment, so without us...

And soy

Killing the fertility rates and the literal babies

how long will it be until politics sorts itself out, and mass immigration is seen as an evil?

i hope soon.

Idk, keep pushing the environmental argument against immigration

you are are seeing it happening already now in the elections that show up all over Europe

i think leftests could get it if you point out that immigration is bad for the original nation

since they hate their own country - but they can't hate the foreign country

poor 3rd world mother works hard and brings up baby

then america steals baby to come and do minimum wage job

easy to portray as evil - which it is

I was thinking that mass immigration is actually bad for the planet... as you have just that many more people living first world life styles and contributing to the pollution... what's more important the future of everyone or some people in africa?

feminism and antinatalism is the ideology of capitalism

hard-capitalism
