Wind turbines wrong colour for wildlife
[C]hanging a turbine’s colour could have a profound impact on the number of insects it lures in and therefore the number of birds and bats that follow.
The researchers also found that the ultraviolet and infrared components of paint colour, which humans cannot see but insects can, also had a significant impact, with higher levels of both attracting more insects.
The obvious solution is to pattern the blades’ surface with fiberoptic ends. As they spin at night, the pinpoints of light will be centrally sychronously driven to sweep out an advertising billboard, static or animated. Revenue always trumps morality.
