Glass is a favored building material for modern architecture, yet it is also very dangerous for wild birds. Because they often cannot distinguish between glass and open air, millions of birds are harmed every year when they try to fly through glass windows. There are, however, several solutions that responsible businesses can use to prevent injuries to birds.
The reading and the lecture are both discussing using specific solutions to prevent birds from crashing into glass windows. While the author of the reading offers three solutions to do that, the lecturer claims that each of them will not stop birds from flying through glass windows.
To begin with, the author argues that replacing regular glass with one-way glass would make bird unable to see in, thus they will not try to fly through. The lecturer challenges this specific argument by stating that a one-way glass window is a reflective object, and it might reflect the sky or the trees. Therefore, the bird might fly through it, because they cannot recognize the reflected picture from the real one.
Secondly, the writer states that if the architects designed windows with colorful patterns on them, bird will not trying to fly through these windows. The lecturer, however, rebuts this by mentioning that birds will perceive the open spaces between the stripes and will try to fly through these halls. Unless if architects made these opening spaces too small, and in this case rooms inside the building would be so dark.
Finally, the author suggests that creating an artificial magnetic field would solve the problem. In the article, it is mentioned that birds use the earth's magnetic field to navigate their direction. Although the lecturer agrees that birds use a magnetic field while they are flying, but he illustrates that birds use this feature only when they traveling for long distances. And during the short flights the use their eyes and brightness of the light to navigate their directions.
