    COP that lot

    The problem with wind farms is that they kill a disproportionate number of large(and already scarce) soaring birds like vultures, storks etc and also displace them from remaining habitat. Cats tend to kill common or garden birds around habitation so they are not really comparable in terms of...

    COP that lot

    The amount of Nuclear waste currently produced is a drop in the ocean compared to the toxic waste coming from battery production for EV's and windfarms. In any case modern Nuclear tech is close to eliminating the issue via new reator modles via Thorium and Fussion

    !! Micro-Plastics in the Environment !!

    I don't know what it is going to take before Western governments start banning this menace(some African countries already have!!).

    Victorian woman charged with animal cruelty after almost 130 Wedge-tailed Eagles found dead
