Support Lights Out Indy

Courtesy of Green Piece Indy:

"During spring and fall migration, most birds migrate at night. The problem: Confused birds are flying into lit-up high rise buildings and meeting their very untimely deaths. In response, the city's Amos W. Butler Audubon Society is promoting Lights Out Indy, a simple but effective program to reduce this sad trend by asking downtown high rise buildings to turn off their office lights at night (greenpieceindy.com). "

"Does this really work, you ask? Chicago implemented this program years ago and estimates that more than 10,000 birds' lives are spared annually as a result. And, of course, turning out the lights saves energy and money. If you work downtown or know someone who does, please spread the word about this important program (greenpieceindy.com)."
