Light Pollution

Scientific paper

For those interested in combating the adverse effects of light pollution, both on astronomy and on the general public, one of the strongest "allies" is the existence of an outdoor lighting control ordinance. Such a law sets a community standard for good lighting, thus minimizing glare, light trespass, the clutter of bad lighting, and energy waste. The process of obtaining such an ordinance can be quite time consuming, but it has the added value of educating most of the segments of a community about the issues, and of building allies to the cause.
