much more could be done, especially shielding street lights. we should all be able to see the stars.
i know a lot, and light pollution is terrible and damaging to both astronomy and the environment and people. we need to put laws in place to protect the night sky.
i took a scientific communication class where this was a big focus- we did a letter campaign at the state level to get a law considered, but it's still working its way through the legal process. light pollution is not good! there are a lot of effects on ground-based astronomy research, and it's not good for human or biosphere health. it's also really wasteful- all that power is going towards lighting up nothing mostly.
i just have basic knowledge of this topic. i think light pollution has to be taken seriously as it's not just about ruining the beauty of the night sky, but it affects the environment, economy, and our health as well.
i have done research for a small astrophysics project. i definitely see both sides of the issue. it’s really hard to see stars and study them when you have a lot of light pollution. i’m a light sleeper so lots of things interrupt my sleep schedule if i don’t fix them. i have blackout curtains on my windows and a sleep mask as well. but i’m also a woman who doesn’t feel comfortable walking through super dark places at night and adequate lighting is just something you need.
i believe that most people don't know that light pollution is a thing. everyone is so concentrated on global warming, polluted water, and soil that they forget that light could be dangerous, too.
