It's yet another Green Renewable Electric Energy Development taking over all our places to "recharge" this project is currently being "Enstalled" (think Enron2) at Chevelon Canyon Arizona, the little Grand Canyon of the Wild Wild West, it's master plan is to be farming you and your children's children's green $$$ energy for decades to make portfolios grow all over the world including pension plans in Canada of all places instead of at home and they don't provide you "free energy" they make you use more of it. Wind farms are movie sets presenting illusions of "saving the planet" from nothing as carbon is not a poison nor is it barely in the sky. Behind the scenes we see that they are PIPELINES to your cash! The do entertain us though with their illusions of "free clean energy" just like watching an award winning film entertains us but at least there we know that it's only a movie, with GREED certified wind & solar farming they try to pretend it's all good. And it's all founded on the junk science of Carbon Obsession 2 (CO2) which does nothing to climate or weather.

Chevelon Canyon Ranch also to get new neighbors to the West, a massive wind farming project covering about 50 square miles

IMPORTANT QUESTIONS TO ASK DEVELOPERS AND COUNTY BOARDS FREQUENTLY

Q: What about birds being killed by these disabled energy projects that soar into the sky 820 feet with broad sweeping blades?
A: They do kill birds, and bats, and insects which is food for birds and bats and insects also consume bacteria and parasites and decaying materials and are a good part of the ecosystem. We need to put grates over these blades like is done with table fans as is done for safety.


Q: Has the developer considered this kill and has the developer addressed this?
A: As we can see in the meeting on 8/18/22 the spokes person for West Camp Wind which is the same as for Chevelon Butte wind Mr. Unrein states this

"Mr. Unrein spoke to avian mortality issues, sharing research done by various federal agencies showing that buildings and house cats were responsible for more avian mortality than turbine interference."

This is a standard sales pitch response that does not address the concerns of these unnatural objects that have massive blades that spin in circles kill even very large birds including eagles. It's also a bad comparison as cats eat birds as they do in nature as do many things in nature, that doesn't mean that since cats kill birds that massive wind turbines should be allowed to at all. These projects are not energy efficient and net losses. To build net loss projects that then also harm and destroy environments especially the beauty and also kill wildlife is not appropriate. Tall buildings do not kill eagles as they are not in the cities. They have limited kill rates of popular and plentiful birds, and if you look at a comparison as to how many square feet of building there is in a city to how many birds are killed and look at that ratio of the kill rate of wind blade total area in a project and that kill rate it's surely a goos 1000x difference where the city is more friendly to birds than a wind project. These eagles are protected species and should not be allowed to be killed by disabled energy systems that are net losses to the public but big gainers to portfolios. These projects are not necessary. So this kind of comparison the developer makes is bogus.
