Check out Harry Huytons blog from earlier today and an interesting article in the Guardian regarding new research about on the impacts of wind farm developments and bird populations. The full article is available here or in the April 2012 issue of the Journal of Applied Ecology.

This is set to be a big issue. As the number of windfarms increase the danger to birds increase greatly.
I understand that in some places windfarms are responsible for the death of large numbers of birds.
Mind you the Guardian article says otherwise. Still something not happening is not news! :)

There have been hints over the weekend that the Government is less keen on onshore wind farms than it was in the early days of the coalition; see this article in today's Telegraph

Oh thank you very much. As you probably know that from a carbon dioxide point of view wind farms are a nonsense anyway!
