Restoring condors to the wild and creating new wind energy facilities are environmental "goods," as each benefits society. Free flying condors provide the benefits of an apex animal in the pyramid of life. Its absence would change that pyramid, not necessarily for the better. Wind energy offers a measurable reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, commensurably contributing to global temperature stability. Yet, both cannot occupy the same geographic place simultaneously without the one, wind turbines, destroying the other, condors. Ways to eliminate or reduce the problem are costly and perhaps unrealistic. So a decision must be made which of the two will or can survive.
