In the world there are nearly 10,000 species of birds. Among them 1,230 are found in India only . Almost 13% percentage of world birds species are in India are under threat due to various reasons : climatic change, pollution and strong electromagnetic field. Birds are affected by magnetic radiation, light pollution, glass reflection, oil spills, etc. Every year, in United states nearly 1 billion of birds are dying from striking on window. This collisions are of two types :daytime and night time collision.During day the birds lure to the vegetarian food found on the other side of the window .While in night the nocturnal migrant may get distracted by the light from window. Some birds will attack their own reflection on the window. This often happens in spring season .Thus to save the birds we can place a net cover out of a window, paste design tapes, use UV marked glass, etc. Birds can see UV light which can’t be seen by humans.
During the period of 1997 to 2007 the cell phone base stations were installed in large level. In Punjab ,Uttar Pradesh different species of birds have been lower breeding observed closed to cell phone station. In south Chennai -200 Chennai bird species like house sparrow ,red whiskered bulbul, brahmini kite ,spotted dove have virtually disappeared. Birds are sensitive to magnetic radiation. It will affect their immune system.
The magnetic pulse will damage the eggs and embryo . Then the chick caught out will lead to infections and their plumage will be discolored. Therefore, we have to avoid using wireless communication else prepare an alternate technology that should not affect the life of other livings.
The leakage in the ship or petroleum tank or disposal of waste oil in ocean will affect the sea birds. Normally the birds wing is water repellent but the presence of oil in water will make them tunable to fly.
