Preserving and restoring the natural nighttime environment is more urgent then ever.  Light pollution is the human made alteration of outdoor light levels from those occurring naturally.  When we over light, fail to use timers and sensors, or use the wrong color of light, we negatively impact many parts of our world.  Light pollution destroys critical wildlife habitat, wastes energy and money, harms human health, decreases safety and security, robs us of our night sky heritage, and inhibits scientific research.  The stars are disappearing but light pollution is reversible!!  Join us to explore this fascinating subject!!
