Lights Out Texas: Spring Peak Migration - Texas (April 22-May 12)
Texas is a major flyway for migrating birds. Outdoor lighting can be deadly for the wildbirds who mostly travel by night. The lights distract and disorient them leading to exhaustion and building collisions. Houston and Dallas are ranked in the top three most dangerous cities for migrating birds.
Building owners, businesses, developers and homeowners can help protect migrating birds by turning off all non-essential nighttime lighting on buildings and other structures from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. each night.
Migration season runs March 1-June 15. Peak migration is April 22-May 12.

Dallas Sierra Club: Texas Electric Bus Project - Zoom
Executive Director, Jessica Keithan, from Texas Electric School Bus Project explains why it's imperative that Texas' school buses convert to electric power.
• More than 95 percent of school buses in the United States run on diesel fuel.
• Diesel exhaust is not only a known carcinogen, it is also linked to serious physical health issues such as asthma and heart disease.
• Exposure to diesel exhaust can also have serious cognitive development impacts.
• Children are especially at risk. Source: Texas Electric School Bus Project
