I will also add the idea of "cities that never sleep" where all lights are still on even if people are literally sleeping. It's an horrible concept and should be immediately abolished once we overthrow capital. No, I don't need a lights spectacle every fucking night, once or twice every month is okay but let the city have some darkness ffs. Avoiding visual contamination is important for the well being of people.
Yeah 100% Most places I've lived have had always-on lights outside the windows to varying degrees and it fucks with my sleep big time. I have to find a balance though, because not having any natural light to wake up to fucks with me too.
Some minimal, warm tone street lighting may be for the best in dense areas, but it doesn't need to be bright, it needs to never shine directly into dwellings or up into the sky, and there needs to be strict regulation on other sources of lighting (I don't want to be kept awake by the illuminated signs for say, a restaurant that isn't even open, a gas station that covered itself in LEDs, a blindingly bright LED billboard, etc.)
Similar to noise pollution, it's actually a major public health and quality of life issue
Not far from where I live there's a medium sized LED billboard that is stupidly bright. Like it's so bright it even hurts my eyes as I pass through that corner at night while on my bycicle. I wish to go full IRA on whoever gave the ok to put such horrendous crime against humanity there. Let people rest their fucking eyes omg.
It does turn itself off by 22pm or something, but christ fuck this shit.
I have literally never seen one that does this in the USA
