Pigeons took to the skies Monday in London wearing tracking sensors to “raise awareness” of air pollution.
Pigeon Air Patrol (PAP), a network of private citizens and “pigeon fanciers,” is running the program. Pigeons wear small sensors and satellite trackers, and will fly around to “raise awareness” about the dangers of air pollution, especially nitrogen dioxide. PAP says their goal is to highlight the damaging impacts of air pollution.
