There is another way to light up the night
The combination of increased awareness of the need to minimize the impacts of light pollution, growing need to promote energy efficiencies in rural and urban development planning for mitigating climate change consequences and a better appreciation by citizens of the asso¬ciated benefits, are the main premises for the development of this action. Reducing light po¬llution and adopting intelligent lighting systems are not only acts of responsibility, but also an obliged smart choice that brings economic be¬nefits, improve health, saves energy, and allows recovering the starry sky dimension as a threa¬tened landscape.
Article 7 of the Starlight Declaration, adopted in 2007 with the support of UNESCO in the Biosphere Reserve of La Palma, states that “The intelligent use of artificial lighting that minimises sky glow and avoids obtrusive visual impact on both humans and wildlife has to be promoted. Public administrations, the lighting industry, and decision makers should also ensure that all users of artificial light do so responsibly as part of an integral part of planning and energy sustainability policies, Photo Gallery, both from the ground and from space. This strategy would involve a more efficient use of energy so as to meet the wider commitments made on climate change, and for the protection of the environment.”

The following steps to take are undoubtedly achievable:
- prevent the emission of light towards the sky or the horizon;
- do not waste downward light flux outside the area to be lit;
- avoid over lighting;
- shut off lights when the area is not in use;
