He says that this site was chosen because of the strong winds that blow through the pass and engineers didn t know that they were building the wind farm on a migratory route. But according to the speaker Altamont Pass is very unusual. Other wind farms have not experienced the same problem with birds. In Denmark where a great deal of energy is generated by wind a study was done that showed only a few birds per year were killed. This is fewer than the average housecat kills. The speaker admits that Altamont Pass Wind Farm needs to protect birds or to be relocated. In contrast to the author s point of view the speaker says that we should not stop building wind farms because wind energy is a safe clean source of energy. In fact we should build more. Task 5 The author mentions that in the letters to the editors of the campus paper astronomers indicate that they are upset because the campus and the streets of the town are too well lit. The astronomers say this makes it difficult for them to see the stars and to perform their astronomical experiments. The author agrees that this is unfortunate but according to professors of criminology good lighting prevents crime. If we reduce the amount of light the author says we will have a higher crime rate. The speaker however disagrees with this point of view. He tells the class that he has already said that light pollution makes things hard for astronomers but he wonders if it is true that more light on the streets actually prevents crime. According to the speaker some studies say it does but others say it is not effective. The speaker goes on to say however that he and his colleagues do not want the campus and streets to be completely dark. They are only requesting SMART lighting. He says that today s street lamps send 40 of their light where it is not needed .
