are you sure?
Coal made 60% of our electric, wind made about 1%.
And the Generators were made in China etc, so they killed other humans.
And the Malaria and sharks and the like will be killing humans here and
around the world.... The pollution and energy used in building Wind
generators is also killing humans. They use Oil and coal and more to
build one. So I'll bet we can attribute some of the 16,000 killed as
having died producing power to build these and stand them up in the
field, since NO wind generator is built by only wind generated power.
The wind generators are built with Coal and Oil and Gas fuels as power.
["How does wind's mortality rate compare with that from other energy
sources? Unfortunately, there is no simple answer. Part of the problem
is that statistics on mortality rates for the full fuel cycle of coal,
for example, are not readily available. And where available they use
different units. Yet, it appears that the current mortality rate of wind
energy of 0.15 deaths per TWh is roughly equivalent to that of mining,
processing, and burning of coal to generate electricity according to
some researchers. (This data doesn't include increases in mortality from
the air pollution that results from burning coal.) Data from other
researchers indicates that wind's mortality rate is about half that for
the occupational mortality rate for coal."]
