"Ask most people, and the image of wind turbines as bird killers still persists, often amplified by anti-renewable rhetoric. But if you look at the hard data, a different story emerges. It turns out that while wind turbines do kill birds, they are statistically insignificant compared to the bigger killers we have in our cities and in our bedrooms. In fact, when you factor in climate change, wind power might actually help birds."

Data not only shows the relative impact of wind turbines on bird deaths, but also gives us the insight to reduce their impact further.

Happy spring equinox!

Amazingly, the weather is so mild for the foreseeable future that I could change to summer tires on my car. Usually, I wait until I have to after Easter.

Lost my job in January due to a reorganisation, but agreed to stay on a bit longer to help smoothen the transfer of my responsibilities and knowledge. But today, my job in a non-profit youth organisation is finally ending and I need to find something else.

Not a programmer and don't know if the Fediverse can help. But if I don't reach out, I know for sure nobody here can help me.

So more about me:
- science educator with experience in development and delivery of engaging activity- and project-based educational events and programs in and out of schools and self-directed informal learning-by-doing programs in a non-profit setting
- PhD in medicine
- data analyst and medical writer, especially medical communication, training and education
- GenX but too young to start contemplating retirement
- multilingual in Norway: Dutch, English, Norwegian (bokmål and nynorsk) and a passive understanding of German, Swedish and Danish

Looking for opportunities to use my experience to help our young to take back control over their lives and to help them to learn by doing.

Boosts and comments are very much appreciated!
