Why is it every time they "go green" something more fucked up happens?

Don't kill trees! No more brown bags at the supermarket.
Stop using plastic bags because they don't decompose.

Now solar energy is making birds explode!

The headline is a little misleading, solar panels aren't igniting anything. Concentrated solar power is, but I know being factual in a news cast is very passe...

Not to mention that they're continuing to fly into the heat until it kills them... I mean seriously. As it gets hotter and hotter you turn around

Birds are not always the most intelligent. It's the amount of birds dying that is troublesome. I kinda want them to stick around to eat the damn bugs I hate.

Is it dying or dieing?

Not to mention that there are other indicators that bird populations are actually on the rise. For example the number of bird strikes on aircraft (percentage based on number of craft in the air) has steadily risen for the past 10 years or so.
