As much as plants and animals need light, they also need the dark. At a moment when we are facing a crisis in extinctions, scientific studies document that light pollution disrupts wildlife and plants, impacts human health, and contributes to climate change. The loss of dark skies also blocks our most ancient connection with the universe.
From the beginning of time, light and dark, day and night, have been the great clock that orchestrates life on earth. In addition to the impacts on migrating birds and all other wildlife, we are also losing part of our birthright that joins us with all the generations, the sense of awe at the stars in the night sky.
Mark Grosz, from DarkSky International, will discuss the ecological impacts of the loss of dark skies. The good news is that we can begin to restore darker skies with relatively simple solutions.
We will address regional and Rockland specific issues following the talk by Mark Grosz and Q&A.
