In our\u00a0weekly\u00a0recap on Sunday, we, as editors, look back at the past seven days. We do this at the suggestion of our cartoonist\u00a0<\/em>Albert Jan Rasker<\/em><\/strong><\/a>. He chooses a subject, makes a drawing, and we take it from there. If you also want to receive it every Sunday morning,\u00a0<\/em>just subscribe here<\/em><\/strong><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cartoon was based on\u00a0this interesting article<\/a>: Every year, approximately 50,000 birds die in the Netherlands because they fly into a wind turbine. This must and can be done differently. By painting them black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I see a windmill, and I want it painted bla-a-a-a-ack\u2026 No colors anymore, I want them to turn bla-a-a-a-ack!<\/em>\u00a0Since 90% of the readers have a tune in their heads right now, we\u2019ll just start this weekly letter right off with\u00a0a link to Spotify<\/a>. Be sure to put this song on \ud83c\udfb6 as you read on.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Albert Jan Rasker also immediately got this 1966 classic in his head when he read the story about the initiative to paint windmill blades black. The goal? Less bird mortality – thus, another argument against the construction of wind turbines on land and sea disappears. Reason enough for our cartoonist to launch a bird festival.For us, it\u2019s only beautiful. Anything that can help get useful innovations better accepted are more than welcome. And as long as we haven\u2019t reached all the goals, we\u2019ll keep paying attention to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udfb6 I wanna see it painted, painted, painted. Painted black, yeah! \ud83c\udfb6<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
