The Dying of the Light - We Hope

Join us as we explore the differences between effective lighting and light pollution.  Learn more about how we can work to protect human health and wildlife reproduction and ecology, public safety and reduce energy consumption and its associated cost and carbon footprint.

We will explore together the mounting knowledge base regarding artificial light at night, and a very modern problem... light pollution from satellites in space!
