Re: State’s first energy wind farm planned in St. Mary’s Parish

What a great idea! Wind turbines 498 feet tall in the middle of the Mississippi Waterfowl Flyway adjacent to the Russell Sage Refuge for birds. Giant propeller blades slicing through the air at a hundred miles an hour slaughtering birds 24/7.

What bastardized union of politics and business delivered this boondoggle?
