Scientific paper

There are a number of areas where collaboration between amateurs and professionals is essential. One of these is in combating the adverse effects of light pollution on astronomy, and on the public as well. Such problems affect us all, to some degree, and they are getting worse most everywhere. We must become activists in preserving dark skies. The problems are many, but there are solutions. Education is the key. Good nighttime lighting should be our goal. We know that these solutions work, and that they have many advantages for the public. However, it takes a great deal of time and effort to implement them. Dark skies need all the help they can get.
