Editor’s note<\/em>: \u00a0Since posting this, I have corresponded with the writer, Ella. She has given me the specific, blow-by-blow details of her claim that a wind company employee indeed approached a local resident, inquiring about renting 5 acres to use as a surreptitious burial site—for turbine-slaughtered birds. The resident declined. I will take the matter further and, if given permission by Ella and her associates, will reveal more. Suffice it to say, for now, that I have verified the accuracy of her claim—to my satisfaction, at least. \u00a0(See my earlier comment, at the bottom of this posting.)<\/p>\n

Need some cash, anyone? (Sarcasm!)<\/p>\n

In Gilford Township, Michigan, 75 newly installed turbines that went on line in December 2012 are looking to rent 5 acres to bury birds.<\/p>\n

They are trying to install 3000 IWT in the Thumb of Michigan, which is rated as the 3rd<\/sup> best agricultural soil on this planet.<\/p>\n

“Please Lord Jesus, help us all!” \u00a0Why do these farmers not realize their soil is Black Gold, the Saudi Arabia of soils on the planet?<\/p>\n

I can only pray someone will read this. I can only pray someone will document the slaughter in Gilford. I can only pray this madness stops.<\/p>\n

\nEditor’s note<\/em>: \u00a0Some readers are contacting me privately and wondering why I posted this, with nothing more than this woman’s “say so.” \u00a0I don\u2019t want to dismiss her claim out of hand. It\u2019s an intelligently written comment, and the remainder of it seems sound. I have contacted her for clarification.<\/p>\n

My gut leads me to credit<\/a>, more or less, this kind of statement<\/a>. Largely because it\u2019s obvious<\/a> birds are getting whacked<\/a>. It\u2019s also clear that bodies are being hidden. What\u2019s surprising is not (a) birds being slaughtered<\/a>, or (b) an effort made at “cover-up<\/a>.” What’s novel is the company passing the word around that it needs a burial site. There is so much chicanery by wind developers (\u201cchicanery\u201d is putting it politely: These people are pathological liars), that I\u2019m gonna assume this woman\u2019s right till proven wrong.<\/p>\n

Incidentally, there is nothing to say the wind company intends to \u201cfill\u201d 5 acres with birds. \u00a0Be that as it may, I’ll be interested to hear the writer’s reply to my request for more information.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
