Lights Out Bill Aims to Save Birds | New York City News
Description
New York City is poised to dim the lights on office towers and big-box stores under a new bill inspired by the tragic death of Flaco, a Central Park owl. Known as “Flaco’s Law Two,” the legislation aims to reduce bird collisions — over 250,000 annually in NYC — by cutting non-essential nighttime lighting. Advocates say it’s a win-win: protecting wildlife while slashing energy costs for businesses. With backing from conservation groups and city officials, this common-sense measure could set a national precedent for safer skies and smarter lighting.
