  8. "On the outskirts of #Copenhagen, one municipality is adjusting its streetlighting system in a way that departs from decades of urban convention. The solution looks minor. A colour change, visible mostly at night, only on certain streets. But the reasons behind the shift reflect a broader convergence of #biodiversity policy, #climate targets and #infrastructure design."

  18. “Using photometric and spectroscopic sensors, we observed up to 50% night sky darkening during Earth Hour from 2011 to 2024 in Hong Kong, primarily as a result of a small but critical number of lights-out instances in central business districts, as evidenced by crowd-sourced photography records. The emission reductions mostly occurred in the 445–500, 500–540, and 615–650 nm spectral ranges---corresponding to peak emissions from LED billboard screens--- and in the 585–595 nm range, associated with metal halide floodlights used for facades and billboards. Our study identifies these sources as major contributors to urban light pollution.”

  22. Jane Slade has an interesting article in the current issue of the IES LD+A magazine that suggests when it comes to outdoor lighting and security, we're asking the wrong question.

    "I propose that the dangerously oversimplified question 'Is more light safer?' be distilled out of our discourse in the lighting industry. When we hear this question being asked, let us actively design the discourse, redirect the question, call out how it has typically created less quality in design, and elevate the conversation with other, more open-ended and truth-seeking questions"

  27. We light outdoor spaces at night for many reasons, among which is to ensure our nighttime safety and security, but there is little evidence that outdoor lighting deters crime. Quality lighting design promotes better nighttime visibility by exploiting the amazing power of human vision across a large dynamic range. Read how the "lighting for reassurance" design ethic empowers users of outdoor spaces at night by giving them confidence in the integrity of their surroundings.
