本團隊自2018年起，在六燃基地除以各式教育推廣活動建立群眾對蝙蝠的正確認知，也展示蝙蝠標本與相關資訊，透過社交媒體平臺「大煙囪霜毛蝠line社群」的建立，跟大眾分享蝙蝠知識、活動資訊，定期更新大煙囪霜毛蝠的數量狀況。透過此平台，民眾亦能通報新竹地區需救援的蝙蝠，並能隨時主動提問，除建立於都市中和蝙蝠共同生活的安全感外，也思考在城市發展的過程中，如何尊重不同物種之生存需求，將霜毛蝠的保育行動推展至公民實踐的層次。因應大煙囪廠房整修造成蝙蝠數量降低的狀況，團隊也陸續懸掛蝙蝠箱來擴增蝙蝠棲地，並透過蝙蝠保育即時監控系統，使關心霜毛蝠的學者和民眾能透過遠距的方式隨時觀察蝙蝠於煙囪內的生活動態與生育狀況。
Since 2018 at the site of the former Sixth Fuel Factory, the team has not only organized various educational and promotional events to spread correct knowledge of bats among the public, but also displayed bat specimens and related information. With the creation of the LINE group “Asian parti-colored bats at the Big Chimney,” we share knowledge of bats and event information with the public, and regularly update the bat population data. Through this platform, the public can also proactively ask questions at any time and report bats in need of rescue in the Hsinchu area. In addition to fostering a sense of security among people who live with bats in the city, this project further considers how to respect the survival needs of different species during urban development, and how to take bat conservation to the level of civic practice. The team has hung bat boxes to expand the bat habitat in response to the shrinking bat population caused by the renovation of the Big Chimney Factory Base. The real-time monitoring systems also enable scholars and citizens who are concerned about the bats to observe their living and reproductive situations in the chimney at any time.
另外，本團隊固定於霜毛蝙蝠造訪大煙囪的3-9月間舉辦霜毛蝠觀察家、霜毛蝠保母、霜毛蝠救傷、蝙蝠巢箱製作等系列工作坊，並進行蝙蝠觀測與數蝙蝠的活動。透過實際接觸，使周遭居民與附近校園師生建立對蝙蝠的正確認知：「蝙蝠不但無害，甚至還能幫助環境的改善」，建立對多元物種的理解與尊重，討論如何與不同型態的物種永續共存，實踐聯合國永續發展目標的 SDG15 保育陸域生態。
In addition, the team annually holds a series of workshops and bat observation and counting events between March and September when Asian parti-colored bats visit the Big Chimney. The actual contact enables the residents, teachers and students in the vicinity to correctly understand that “not only are bats harmless, but they can help improve the environment.” Thus, different species are treated with respect and sustainable coexistence is discussed.
蝙蝠工作坊除了透過蝙蝠屋的施掛外，重要的還是要改變當地民眾對於霜毛蝙蝠有正確的認知。特別是讓民眾了解蝙蝠不但無害，甚至還能幫助環境的改善。為此本計畫將透過舉辦霜毛蝙蝠的生態與文化工作坊來宣導霜毛蝙蝠落腳於六燃的珍貴性，甚至也會深入當地國中、小學讓小朋友從小就能建立生態保育的觀念。
霜毛蝙蝠生態保育與教育已舉辦四場工作坊，利用藝術介入將六燃史料轉換為光影劇，因應蝙蝠返回的生產的季節舉辦蝙蝠救傷教學，進入六燃實地導覽與觀察霜毛蝠棲地等活動，並舉辦六燃與霜毛蝠課程之教師研習，探討如何讓在地文史與特色被充分認知，成為新竹顯學。與蝙蝠監測裝置施掛、保溫駐站工作站等子項目配合，推廣六燃與霜毛蝠的議題與討論，為六燃未來全區活化再利用增加周邊校園及居民不同年齡層的關注度。資料蒐集後利用藝術形式進行轉換，讓六燃文史能以更生動有趣的面貌呈現。
四次工作坊共計約300位民眾參與，多為建功國小家庭親子，亦有部分校外民眾參與，或由相關保溫計劃資訊得知本活動。建功國小關心六燃議題的師生與家庭已發展穩定，未來可舉辦教師研習，進一步將六燃與霜毛蝠議題融入在地特色教材或學程。六燃區域內校園資源眾多，包含建功國小、光復中學、建功高中、清華大學與交通大學，都是可積極推廣的潛力點，未來可計畫進一步合作，將新竹本土文化、生態保育議題適齡推展，為大煙囪廠房活化前先行保溫。
