A double-crested cormorant flies by transmission towers in Redwood City, California. A new Audubon report contends efforts for bird conservation and renewable energy buildout have the potential to go hand-in-hand.

A new Audubon Society report on birds and power transmission lines pushes for a clean energy grid, but warns the buildout could harm birds. Yet the report contends collaborative planning can create a symbiotic relationship between those pushing for clean energy and others seeking to protect bird species.
