This will be the first year in which Philadelphia pays for all the hardships of its nightmares in an effort to avoid the massive death of migrants that pass through the time between primavera and otoño.
This agreement is the result of a compromise between the citizens and the owners of the editions that will be signed up to more than 15 years of work by various animalistic organizations such as Audubon Mid-Atlantic, which will work to create awareness of the problem that represents them. high altitudes in cities.
The deaths of collision results with edits are not new. The avenues of bird flight show that they are coming through the windows of the edifices, the reflections of the arrows and other potential habitats, and the attractiveness of the brilliant lights and confusions during the nocturnal migration contribute to an impactful number of construction accidents de aves. Investigators estimate that the collisions with edifices caused up to several million deaths annually in the United States, which constitute a very clear argument as to why the edifices and cities should be designed to account for them.
But the problem, which usually does not disappear, is more obvious than in October of this year when in one night more than 1,000 passengers were staring and grumbling against the windows of the high altitudes of the center of Philadelphia.

This is due to an unusual convergence of factors, such as the period of semi-migration, the poor timing and abundance of the debris that grows inside the high altitudes during the night, the disorientation of the animals and contributing to their death.
“I have pajamas for all parties. There is no denying that we are experimenting with jams ”, Keith Russell’s dice manager, urban conservation program at Audubon Mid-Atlantic, the regional office of the national organization with fines centered on the aves.
This group has been since 2006 paying the owners of the editions that Hagan algo to help avoid these deaths just before the passing year, when the city despairs with miles of carcasses in the calls, logaron that performers pay attention.
“Hubo mucho appendizaje y mucha conciencia que surgió de eso”, double Russell.

Thank you for announcing that this year we will be implementing the initiative “Lights Out Philly” (Philadelphia Apaga las Luces), which will take place between April 1 and May 31 and again August 15 until November 15. , fechas en las que side pide a los propienarios y gerentes de los edificios que apaguen, atenúen o bloqueen las luces dentro los edificios se normally dejan encendidas por la noche.
It also requires that the nooks and crannies, as well as the illuminated letters of the editors or the logos of the patrons, appear or change to blue colors that have less probabilities of attracting red and white carpets. For these periods of biennial migration, the gaps can help reduce the attractiveness and potentially deadly distraction of the edifices, maintaining the tens of millions of miles traveled through Philadelphia through the length of the Atlantic Route in the Atlantic. fuel.
The initiative is based on the response of the Office of Sustainability of the City of Philadelphia and has received compromises from more than a dozen major landowners, the Association of Proprietors and Administrators of Philadelphia Edicts in the Association of the Philadelphia Association. To cover the gaps, the property owners can save the life of the birds and, at the same time, increase energy costs. ‘It’s good for the medium ambience in more than one form ”, double Russell.
Audubon Mid-Atlantic has a monitor and an effect of the program, with sietewillarios recorriendo the center of the city from the 05:30 y ysta boetes de mayo.

Philadelphia has another 33 cities in the United States that have their own Lights Out programs, including New York, Atlanta and Chicago, which have held the program since 1999. But he also made other efforts to reduce the risk for the citizens in the city., including the installation of a marketed glass with small cartridges that disassemble them.
However, Russell says that during migration periods, the gaps are essential, especially in Philadelphia, which is one of the important cities in the Atlantic Area and the site of the most important mass collision event in recent memory. .
“Although the glass is a major problem, the lights are the main reason why we have massive collision events”, double Russell. “It has one of its registered residents in the city in the past, and has also been killed by massive collisions all over the country in other cities. And they are always associated with the lights ”.
Although the center of the city is where the majority of the deaths of birds, their ancient editions and the nocturnal lizards are not among the only culprits. Russell says the changes in the Deber city will be considered compromised by joining Lights Out Philly, during migration periods and more.
“This program also helps people who live in high-altitude buildings and single-family homes to participate,” Doubles. “It can be very useful to make it during the migration, but only in the last instance, if it is extended until the year, it will be longer”.
