Worst birdkiller is Musk

Is the plural for CAT cable really Cats and not CAT cables?

Guess it is like mouses for more than one computer mouse.

TIL.

What's up with comms towers? High-voltage AM antennas are not that abundant anymore. Are birds getting cooked close to high-power transmitters? Shot to avoid interference with crucial military infrastructure? Is 5G real?

[-] n7gifmdn@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

Well the image claims to be based on data from 2015, so no 5G was not real at that time.

That was a joke, and so was the previous sentence (a reference to the birdsarentreal conspiracy. Seriously, how do comms towers harm birds?

Edit: collisions with tall AM towers' guy wires

Just curious but how are Comm towers killing birds? Do they fly into them or something?

So pollution doesn't kill birds at all? Ok..

[-] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Why should it? It doesn't kill humans, or at least we really don't attribute very many deaths directly to pollution (even though we know it leads to all sorts of cancers and respiratory issues).

After all, if pollution could kill people, why would anybody modify their truck to "roll coal"? That'd practically manslaughter on a very long time scale.

Why would we be using fossil fuels at all, for cars or for power or for lawnmowers or anything, really. The sale and distribution of fossil fuels would be on the scale of committing genocide.
