Bird Deaths Caused by Turbine Can be Reduce Up to 70% Using This Paint

Researchers were able to find a simple way on how to reduce bird deaths caused by wind turbines massively. The study was conducted at Norway's Smola wind farm for about nine years.

Back in 2013, an experiment was conducted at the Smola farm, which includes painting a single blade of each of the four turbines in the test group with black paint. The research showed positive results since only six birds were found dead after three years. The study showed that only 18 bird deaths were recorded by the four control wind turbines, a 71.9% drop in the annual fatality rate.
