Light Pollution Featured in School Science FairOntario Grade 5 student wins gold medal at local science fair, and then takes another award in regional fair. Congratulations on a job well done! "I learned a lot about how light pollution affects everyone, especially astronomers and even birds and migrating turtles. Because a lack of awareness rather than resistance is more the cause of light pollution, the goal of this project was to prove that light pollution existed, how i how it can be minimized and to educate others. I think communities should pass by-laws to protect against light pollution and I hope in the near future that old, 'bad' outdoor lighting fixtures will be retrofitted or replaced to minimize light pollution and that 'good' fixtures will be used in new construction." |
