Artificial Refugia
(slrpnk.net)
If this isn't the most dystopian thing you've read today I don't know what is.
Artificial Refugia (such as bat boxes) can be used to somewhat offset lost habitat, but it's like replacing a rainforest with a plastic plant and calling it conservation. Further, unless they are meticulously designed, they can act as traps (trap animals inside), snack plates for predators, or even 'cook' the animals inside them.
Like when companies boast about how their clothing range is made from recycled plastic bottles. Yes, congrats, you've taken big bits of plastic, and now turned them into microplastic fibres that will make their way into the water system every time you wash them. Bravo.
