مستخلص: |
The article discusses the need for stronger enforcement of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) to protect birds from collisions with buildings. It highlights the significant number of bird deaths caused by these collisions and emphasizes the importance of bird-safe glass and building designs, as well as methods to reduce light pollution. The article mentions the Federal Bird Safe Buildings Act, which proposes requirements for bird-safe building materials and design features, but notes that it has yet to pass. The article concludes by suggesting that laws and enforcement are necessary to ensure the adoption of bird-safe solutions and reduce bird mortality. [Extracted from the article] |
