Light Up Your World, Not the Sky: A Friendly Guide to Dark Sky Lighting
Before delving into Dark Sky-Friendly lighting, it's essential to understand what light pollution is. Light pollution is the excessive, misdirected, or intrusive artificial light. Types of light pollution include glare (excessive brightness that causes visual discomfort), skyglow (brightening of the night sky over inhabited areas), light trespass (light falling where it is not intended or needed), and clutter (bright, confusing, and excessive groupings of light sources). Light pollution is like leaving the lights on in an empty room – it's unnecessary and wasteful. It hides our beautiful stars and disrupts the natural world. But here's the good news: we can turn things around with smarter lighting choices. And that's where Dark Sky-Friendly Lighting comes in!
