A Fixable Challenge
ZLI's Save a Billion Birds! Campaign is dedicated to preventing a staggering number of bird deaths due to collisions with glass.
Conservative estimates place the take at a billion birds a year in the US alone, with a proportional amount happening in Europe, Australia, Africa, and Asia. Other estimates are higher, tallying 3 billion birds every single year. These unthinkable numbers relate locally to about a bird every second in each individual state, or about two thousand since you started reading this call out.
While some legislative measures are being taken, more needs to be done. As a nonprofit, our sponsoring The Zoological Lighting Institute can incentivize good works such as bird-friendly design with tax deductions, which is after all the purpose a charity.
