Better technology should avoid or not have collateral damage. Technologists should strive for something that's better in every way. What if the issue is not addressed, and it turns out these solar farms particularly attract one type of bird, and that population is destroyed, and it has repercussions on other populations?

Won't the birds just eventually go around the solar farm. Just like they eventually learn not to eat the poisonous berries, and not to get caught by house cats?
