Yeh they are such a nuisance. What with being located on farms or out at sea with no one around.

Get a grip.

Pro tip: there are people both on farms and at sea.

Also birds and bats that collide with the blades, many of which are endangered.

That's just not true.

Collision with the blades rarely happens. Birds usually collide with the tower itself, because they get disturbed and try to flee. Towards the sky, which their evolutional programming has identified as "the light".

That's why lots of wind turbines today are painted in different shades of green and brown on the lower part of the tower.
