Ornithologists attack!

The Canberra Times has an interesting spray about another topic that seems to stir up the RiotACT world, windfarms. This time the article is based around the announcement that Capital Wind Farms have submitted DA’s and another paperwork into NSW authorities to start building 60 odd turbines in the Lake George area.

Country Energy worker bee, David Bellew even sticks the boot into Wind Farms and their green power, and states that Country Energy is unlikely to purchase power from this group. Clever business ploy from heart breaking monoploy player, or an Energy company that actually has the consumer interests at heart. You make the choice…

The article also spiked my interest after I came across another wonderful group of soy mocha latte, underwear ironing, interpretive dance watching spastics otherwise known as the Canberra Ornithologists Group . Now I have a line from a Robbie Williams song in my head and I blame you.

Read the article now.

What the arse? As if Ian Campbell all of a sudden cared for endangered species. This is a political ploy. I hope the find some ultra rare beetle or snail at a uranium mining site that he commissions, just so his argumnent backfires.

unfknblvbl…

Call it Darwinism – but if a species is too stupid to avoid being whacked by a giant prop blade (let’s face it – they don’t break any speed limits when they’re operating) then they probably deserve to die out.

Now I would definitely pay eighty bucks a ticket to see that!

Can’t stand mynas. Rats with wings and they deserve to die. For more proof check out the link (if you really give a damn):

And if it’s not, who cares?

LG, who hates birds.

i dont even need to read the bird watchers thing. its a canard they use to try and make windfarms look bad. site them properly and bird death is avoided.
