05年5月7日出版的（英國）《新科學家》雜誌報道，從北歐到美洲的研究結果顯示 ，風力發電站（Wind Farms）會減少週圍多種雀鳥的數目，尤甚是設在河口和近岸淺水區域一帶的發電站，對涉禽和鴨的影響最大。

WIND farms could damage the populations of some bird species if they are not carefully sited. That is the conclusion of a review of all the impact studies done so far.
The review focused on the overall number of birds in and around wind farms, rather than just the number killed by collisions with turbines, and included all rigorous studies done worldwide, from Scandinavia to Wyoming. "Available evidence suggests that wind farms reduce the abundance of many bird species at the wind farm site," it concludes. Among the worst affected are waders and ducks around wind farms on estuaries and in shallow coastal waters.

"We are not saying we should stop building wind farms. Birds would suffer much more from climate change if we don't," says Andy Pullin of the Centre for Evidence-Based Conservation at the University of Birmingham in the UK, one of the authors of the review. "But the data shows we have to be much more careful about where we site them." Wind farms built in deeper water further from the shore might prove better for birds, he says.
如果不用風力發電，讓全球暖化加劇，會對雀鳥有更壞的影響，問題是如何選址， 將風力發電站的影響減低。
人類的活動多少都會影響自然，只是程度不同而已，風力發電總比火力發電少一點 破壞。
