Jason Endfield, born in Liverpool, England, in 1965, is a journalist and environmental campaigner based in Wrexham, United Kingdom. Specializing in environmental issues, biodiversity, wildlife, and nature, Endfield has established himself as a prominent voice in the field of environmental journalism. His journey towards activism was sparked by the inspiration he received from a primary school teacher during his formative years, which instilled in him a deep-seated passion for wildlife conservation and environmental protection. Endfield's work is characterized by his fierce independence and non-alignment with any political group or organization, allowing him to write about environmental matters with a free-thinking outlook. Witnessing the destruction of the UK countryside and the decline in wildlife, he was compelled to take action. He initiated a petition against the UK government's licensing system that allowed the killing of wild birds, including ravens. His relentless efforts led to the exposure of extensive lethal control licenses and a successful campaign that pressured Natural England to publish annual licensing data and withdraw certain harmful licenses. In addition to his work on wildlife protection, Endfield is known for his opposition to the industrial-scale development of wind farms in environmentally sensitive areas. His campaigning and reporting are centered around the need to protect wildlife from the effects of human impact on natural habitats, making him a significant figure in the fight for environmental conservation.

Dead Whales and Wind Farms - the scientific connection
The article discusses the potential link between offshore wind farms and the increase in cetacean strandings, particularly in the UK and USA. It argues that while not every stranding is caused by wind farms, the industry's expansion coincides with rising marine mammal deaths. The author criticizes the wind industry as harmful to the environment, questioning its effectiveness in saving the planet. The article emphasizes the need for scientific evidence to support claims and calls for a balanced perspective on the issue.
Newly released data reveals record number of cetacean deaths in UK waters
Defra ‘aims’ to publish UK Whale Death Data - imminently
The UK government department Defra has been withholding data on cetacean deaths since 2018, despite suspicions of increasing numbers. The data, compiled by the Cetacean Strandings Investigation Programme, has not been published due to concerns about raw data being misinterpreted. After pressure from the Information Commissioner's Office, Defra now aims to release reports for 2020 to 2022, potentially revealing the impact of the offshore wind industry on marine life. The publication of this data is expected to spark public debate on the causes of increased cetacean deaths.

Dead Whales, Wind Farms and the Hidden Data
The UK’s Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has withheld data on cetacean deaths, citing delays due to COVID-19 and avian influenza. Concerns are rising over increased cetacean strandings, potentially linked to offshore wind farm development. Defra's decision has led to frustration and calls for transparency. The Cetacean Strandings Investigation Programme (CSIP) has not published complete data since 2018, causing a fragmented understanding of cetacean mortality. The article suggests a possible link between wind farms and cetacean deaths, advocating for the release of data to allow public scrutiny and informed conclusions.
Thousands Of Gannets Will Perish As North Sea ‘Wind Parks’ Expand
Ambitious plans to industrialize the North Sea with thousands of wind turbines by the Netherlands and the UK pose a significant threat to wildlife, particularly gannets and gulls. Despite the establishment of nature reserves, the impact of extensive wind parks on marine ecosystems remains uncertain. A study by Wageningen University estimates thousands of bird deaths annually due to turbine collisions. The article criticizes the prioritization of economic interests over environmental concerns, questioning the integrity and true environmental benefits of such renewable energy projects.
