Light Pollution

Light pollution refers to the excessive and unnecessary use of artificial light that results in a brightening
of the night sky. It is a significant problem in many urban areas worldwide, and it has a range of negative
effects on the environment. It can interfere with the natural cycle of day and night, disrupting sleep
patterns and causing a range of health problems , altering migration patterns and disrupting natural
behaviours.To combat light pollution, it is crucial to use energy-efficient lighting technologies and to
minimize unnecessary outdoor lighting. This can include the use of motion-activated lights, shielding
outdoor lights to reduce glare, and turning off lights when they are not needed.By taking steps to reduce
we can help to protect the health and well-being of both humans and wildlife, as well as conserve energy .
