ZLI's Save a Billion Birds! Campaign: Empowering Communities
The Zoological Lighting Institute™ • Science & Faring Well
The Zoological Lighting Institute™, the organization behind ZLI's Save a Billion Birds! Campaign, is dedicated to supporting the sciences of light and life through the arts for animal welfare and wildlife conservation. We value pure research, critical perspectives on it, and the potential of science to mitigate suffering by addressing fundamental challenges such as inequity and climate change.
As a registered 501 c(3), we are dedicated to human well-being. Without wildlife, and a humane perspective on non-human life, our communities are at risk. ZLI's Save a Billion Birds! Campaign recognizes the extreme danger in allowing billions of birds to die without cause due to building glass, and it also recognizes the evils of inequitable access to the natural world around us. Whether this refers to the isolating effects of light pollution or an inability to connect with birds, our work strives to shape a better world for all. Find out more at www.zoolighting.org

About ZLI's Save a Billion Birds! Campaign
The Zoological Lighting Institute stands apart from others as a science oriented animal welfare organization, seeking to offer supportive solutions to the bird-glass collision crisis. ZLI's Save a Billion Birds! Campaign, and ZLI's Little Birds Initiative, supports the financial needs of those willing to be 'bird-friendly', no matter how resourced they might be.
We're doing this for all people that need birds that now, need people.
Get Involved
ZLI's Save a Billion Birds! Campaign offers several ways to get involved. Property owners that go bird-friendly can participate in ZLI's Little Birds Initiative, earning tax deductions but also sharing their bird-friendly projects to friends around the globe. Soon, we will announce our 'Biking for Birds' initiative, to monitor collisions but also to encourage everyone to enjoy birds outdoors. We'll also be hosting a research symposium in 2025, and offer educational programming too.
Our Commitment to Science
Scientific research helps people to understand their world, which helps to manage risks by thinking carefully and critically about life.
ZLI's Save a Billion Birds! Campaign has been established to fund ornithological research at all levels of education, and to apply good research to solve the daunting challenge of bird-glass window collisions.
Requiring all to participate if success is to be achieved, the Campaign emphasizes full diversity, engagement, inclusion, and accessibility in the wake of the Central Park Birding Incident in New York City.
