Stop Light Pollution
Public to understand that light pollution is wrong & turn off the lights.
This is really easy to achieve, and will create further ideas to save energy.
1) Use much more efficient and well directed lighting everywhere to save energy and protect the environment down here and in the night sky
2) Turn off any illuminated Public buildings at night after midnight.
3) Revise Current Light Pollution Legislation
