Rejected petition: Switch to warm toned lights to help reduce light pollution & help our night sky
Rejected on
We all know light pollution is ruining our planet sure not as much as climate change is yet it still has an impact on it, it’s our job as humans to protect earth, this being said please consider changing white lights to warm toned lights ANYWHERE where possible, schools, parking lots, neighbourhoods
I’ve done some research and figured out that, light pollution ‘is currently at its highest recorded level in history and continues to worsen. Global sky brightness is accelerating rapidly, increasing by an average of about 10% each year’ according to the source of the natural history museum, it deeply concerns me how it’s going to keep getting worse which is why I ask that something be put in place, even if it’s not a lot it’ll mean a lot to future generations wondering what the sky looked like
