Almost 60 years ago, one of the best pop groups in Great Britain made a strange request. The Rolling Stones implored us all that “Paint It Black” and two months before England’s football team won the World Cup, the song became its sixth British single number one.
Stones wanted everything painted black from red doors to a car line. Now his demand has extended many years later in the protection of nature. The United Kingdom Government is testing a four -year scheme to save birds painting black black windows. The results of a 2023 study reported in the publication of nature indicated that some birds are attracted to white blades and the risk of colliding with rotors and turbines.
Wild things: long wait to discover the future of crossing nature reserve
One can only wonder why it took so many years to say the reddish obvious. From the moment the inefficient inefficient monstrosities were revealed, a threat to flying objects such as birds and insects were clearly presented. However, I am not aware of any study from the United Kingdom or informs that it details the scope of the damage that these rotating executioners cause between birds, butterflies and bats.
Perhaps in part because energy companies sponsored the main wildlife organizations and partly because the scavengers are quickly sent dead or injuries below the turbines, the destruction scale remained hidden. Some unofficial estimates put the number of victims in “thousands.”
The attitude of energy companies towards the victims of the turbine was exposed by a golden eagle called Sparky. The body of this rare eagle was found about 50 feet from a wind turbine with a cut wing in a remote area of Scotland.
Wild Things: Can you help identify lichen in Chistlehurst Common?
Sparky’s fate can never have come to light if he had monitored bone by the Golden Eagle South of Scotland project. They sent personnel to quickly recover the body when Sparky’s satellite label stopped working abruptly. Surprisingly, it is believed that this is your child’s first recorded incident.
If energy companies have bothered to tell the victims, they remain silent. Now it is expected that black turbine paint can stop or at least relieve the killing. I can’t help being a bit skeptical.
If the birds with their exceptional view cannot see the duration of the leaves of the white wind turbine the day, how are blacks going to see at night?
Apparently, the whole issue arose when Donald Trump expressed his concern to Keir Starmer about the possibility that seabirds were destroyed by the “wind mills” of the United Kingdom. This surely cannot be Donald Trump who aggressively pushed through the construction of the golf course and the Scottish golf course that blamed to destroy a dune system for wildlife.
