Which excerpt from Winona LaDuke’s "A Case for Waawaatesi” best appeals to readers’ logic?
Every year millions of birds die colliding with needlessly illuminated buildings and towers.
Nocturnal animals sleep during the day and are active at night. Light pollution radically alters their world by turning night into day.
It’s things like frogs, who make it their business to croak at night, particularly when mating. Artificial lights disrupt their mojo and that means less frogs and reduced populations.
Think of it this way, your ancestors navigated by the stars, and today most people won’t walk outside without a GPS. That’s a crazy loss of direction or skill at some level for sure.
