That was great, spread the word. Every municipality and institutions of higher learning that gives a care about ALAN should have a link to this as policy & education.

Here's how people can help reduce light pollution: www.darksky.org/get-involved/ You can also find eco-friendly lighting here: www.darksky.org/our-work/lighting/lighting-for-industry/fsa/ There are also basic guides for what lighting is best for cities and residences, including outdoor lighting: www.darksky.org/our-work/lighting/lighting-for-citizens/lighting-basics/, as well as a page for just businesses: www.darksky.org/our-work/lighting/residentialbusiness-lighting/. Here is a page on how to identify if your community has a lighting ordinance, if it does, how to enforce it, and if it does not, how to advocate for it: www.darksky.org/our-work/lighting/public-policy/lighting-ordinances/. Here is a way to deal with light trespass and effects by the local government: www.darksky.org/our-work/lighting/lighting-for-citizens/bad-streetlights/ Here are some lighting guidelines and info for policymakers: www.darksky.org/our-work/lighting/public-policy/policy-makers/ And how to help the animals affected: kzitem.info/news/bejne/0KWCv4utemZkhno Also a very interesting debunking on why increased street lighting doesn't actually decrease crime: www.darksky.org/light-pollution/lighting-crime-and-safety/ Here's a very interesting page on how much light energy is being wasted: www.darksky.org/light-pollution/energy-waste/ If you're a super sciency person, there's a database for scientific research specifically relating to artificial light here: alandb.darksky.org/ There are apps to help combat overturned circadian rhythms, meaning you can work at night but still not mess up your circadian rhythm: www.darksky.org/light-pollution/human-health/ Finally, these are places where you can visit near you that have good light stewardship (meaning you can actually see the sky): www.darksky.org/our-work/conservation/idsp/ If for an absurdly tiny possibility someone from the government read my comment, this link is how to get certified as a Dark Sky place: www.darksky.org/our-work/conservation/idsp/become-a-dark-sky-place/
