Protecting bats from wind turbines
Public Domain by PD-USGov
| Bats play an important role in our ecosystem, for instance, in pest control. Unfortunately, for the USA it is estimated that up to 150 bats are killed per year by a single wind turbine. Now research is conducted how this number could be reduced, for instance, by switching on the warning lights for air planes only when air planes are nearby, or by emitting ultraviolet lights that might deter bats. related: #wind_turbine #bat |
