Trump said again today (Beijing Time July 5): "We are installing wind power. It is completely useless, except for ruining our farmland and valleys, killing all the birds. Wind power is very weak and expensive, and it's all made in China. I have never seen a wind power plant in China. Why is that?"
[Witty] Comment: Trump said, "I have never seen a wind power plant in China." Of course, China has wind power plants. Trump can ask former U.S. Ambassador to China Burns who takes the Chinese high-speed rail, he must have seen them many times. In fact, Trump prefers traditional energy and is not really concerned about new energy and clean energy. However, the issues raised by Trump must be acknowledged; there is still a lot of room for improvement in wind power generation.
[Witty] Additional Information: The AI application Grok's answer: It is estimated that between 140,000 and 1.4 million birds die each year in the U.S. due to wind turbines, with an average of approximately 681,000 after adjusting for current capacity. This is far less than the number of bird deaths caused by cats (1 billion to 4 billion), buildings (365 million to 988 million), or power lines (12 million to 64 million). Wind energy is safer per unit of energy than fossil fuels. Source: National Audubon Society, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
