Info
During International Dark Sky Week, we're lucky to have this spectacular night-time view, considering that 83% of the global population lives under a light-polluted sky. Unneeded artificial light is classified as a pollutant and has been proven to have harmful side effects. Not only does it waste money and energy, but it also disrupts plants and animals, is believed to impact the climate and blocks our view of the universe. Fortunately, dark sky is a recoverable resource. There are ways to reduce our light use and improve the view of the night sky for everyone.
