Conservation: Bird-safe legislation from local to federal levels

Conservation in Colorado Lecture Series. Registration closes 2 p.m., December 14. The price is $5 per computer.

Collisions with glass are estimated to kill up to 1 billion birds per year in United States. Design features of glass can make it visible to birds, reducing the risks to birds dramatically. A number of municipalities have enacted measures that recommend or mandate bird-safe design, and there is federal legislation that has been proposed as well. This talk will explore the features that make buildings more visible to birds and examples of successful legislation to address this important issue, including ways the attendees can help.

Presented by National Audubon experts Connie Sanchez, Program Manager for Bird-friendly Buildings, and John Rowden, Senior Director for Bird-Friendly Communities. Note that this webinar is not suitable for children.
