A new study suggests a way to stop seabirds from colliding with wind turbines: painting a black-and-white pattern on all three blades and the pylon to produce a flickering effect.

It’s estimated that wind turbines kill thousands of birds in the U.K. alone. https://news.mongabay.com/…/whats-black-and-white-and…/
