My blog is about an article titled, "A Reward for Bird-Friendly Buildings." It is about how the new green buildings aren't so bird-friendly. About 1 billion birds die each year in the US from collisions with buildings. A campaign run by the American Bird Conservancy and the Bird-Safe Glass Foundation are making buildings that are more bird friendly by studying one makes the birds attracted to the windows and how they can stop the 1 billion deaths from colliding with the windows of buildings. About 42,000 commercial buildings have already participated in trying to fix their buildings into making them more bird-friendly.
