Banksy’s Bethlehem heralds a different Christmas message. Bethlehem series, December 2007.

In recent years pigeons have become smog monitors. In 2006 there was a plan to fit mobile backpacks to a flock of pigeons to monitor air pollution. Twenty pigeons would be released into the skies over San Jose, California, each carrying a GPS satellite tracking receiver, air pollution sensors and a basic mobile phone. Miniature cameras around their necks would also post aerial pictures. They would be messengers for the environment, continuing the role of their legendary ancestor, back in the time of the Flood. In that story, they were locating land; now they would be helping to preserve that heritage.
