Conservationists and conservatives claim that renewable energy sources kill too many birds. U.S. News and World Report compiled data on which industries are responsible for the most bird deaths yearly. Even with high-range estimates for renewables and low-range estimates for fossil fuels, fossil fuels are responsible for more fatalities. These numbers are estimates; each study used a different methodology.
