Screen
We put screens on home fans to keep small children and drunken adult males from sticking their hands in the blades. I realize it adds to the cost, but why not put them on jet engines and wind farms. Or, perhaps, there is some kind of device that makes a noise only birds can hear - like the tiny scoops you put on car bumpers to keep deer from running out in the road. Maybe have some Owl-like scare crows. Seriously, how hard is it to keep them away. Never heard of an animal dying from solar panels... We also need a President who would allow foreign skimmers in to help clean up the mess before taking two months to let it spill into the Gulf and on to the shores. Building nuclear facilities on fault lines or near oceans subject to sunamis isn't very smart either. We shouldn't rush in to any changes without thinking about every possible thing that could go wrong first. If a device could be created to generate electricity from flies, mosquitos, fleas, ticks, and gnats... it would get my vote.
