Oct 4, 2023 - Wind farms encouraged to paint turbine blades


Wind power may be a great alternative energy source, but they threaten many bird species. It`s believed birds can not see the rotating blades and don`t know they should be avoided. Norway tried painting one blade black to interrupt the pattern and make it visible. That was a success with a 70% reduction in avian fatalities. eNCA speaks to Sam Ralston-Paton from Birdlife SA.
