No, it definitively isn't! If it was your intention to mention societal needs for wind power this entire time, then why didn't you?

If you don't mention the societal needs, and merely make unsupported claims that "windows kill birds," then you are being woefully disingenuous. Because windows do not kill eagles, but wind farms do! This is an important distinction which your blanket statement does not cover.

As for what's marginal, damaging or wasteful, then why is Germany supporting the construction of a woefully and inadequate technology when they have a much better alterative: Nuclear power?

The Green Party is a result of the Anti-nuclear movement in Germany. They need to do a 180 first, before nuclear in Germany can happen again. That probably happens in the next three months...

Hm. My first comment here but ok.

All electricity generation is for societal needs.

And those eagles? One unfortunate incident, fixed by decommissioning one tower?
