I put up screens on many windows year round (higher light pass through meshes like UltraVue make this much less of an impact on views vs older ones, and the tech could improve farther), ultraviolet decals&amp;#x2F;solutions (also lower view impact, they look milky clear to humans but strongly reflect UV which most birds can see, though since they&amp;#x27;re chemical they must be refreshed), golden spiderweb decals on some higher windows, etc. On new buildings thought can be put into materials, how the windows face vs light and surrounding environments, and so on as well. There are plenty of remediation steps available even for existing structures though and yes those steps should be taken.&lt;p&gt;You casting this as some zero-sum game is confusing regardless, because even if no steps were possible for windows rather then many, why the heck would you suggest that meant we shouldn&amp;#x27;t encourage what action could be taken?</text><parent_chain><item><author>leetcrew</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m curious whether you feel the same way about windows, which kill &lt;i&gt;hundreds&lt;/i&gt; of millions of birds each year.
