WIND-DRIVEN ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENT OPERABLE LOUVER
Described is a louver having a frame that forms an enclosure defining an opening, and a plurality of louver blades disposed within the opening. Each of the plurality of louver blades include a catch member that longitudinally extends between a first blade end and a second blade end of a corresponding louver blade. The louver may also include a rotation assembly configured to rotatably couple with the plurality of louver blades and the frame. The plurality of louver blades may autonomously rotate about rotation members of the rotation assembly based on environmental elements captured in the catch member such that the plurality of louver blades are configured in an open position in response to no water in the catch member and are configured in a closed position in response to an amount of environmental elements in the catch member.
