Windmills Ornithologist: Windmills should be built underneath cities or the sea, not the forest

A wildlife expert has suggested that wind turbines should be built near cities or along the coast rather than in forests. The recommendation aims to minimize the impact on bird populations, which are often affected by wind farms located in natural habitats. This approach could balance renewable energy development with environmental conservation. The expert argues that placing wind turbines closer to urban areas would reduce harm to birds while still meeting energy needs.
