11.3 Light Pollution
Light pollution is the presence of unwanted, inappropriate, or excessive artificial lighting.
In a descriptive sense, the term "light pollution" refers to the effects of any poorly implemented lighting, during the day or night
Dimmers, motion sensors and timers can help to reduce light pollution and also save energy.
Switching to LED lighting allows for reduced illuminance without compromising visibility
Turn off unnecessary indoor lighting – particularly in empty office buildings at night.
