More about city lights...
This reminds me of a slogan used here in Vic "Speed kills"... Which leads to speed limit enforcement on freeways and of course fines if the speed limit is breached. And all this is here despite the facts that in Germany, for example, there is NO speed limit at all on Autobahns.. If your car can speed with 500km/h it is OK. Nobody will force you to slow down.
And, there is no statistic that points to a conclusion that there is any more accidents there than here. Yes, when it happens that's it but still..
The same applies to city illumination. It is a mind-set, and what we really need are amateur astronomers in city councils....
Edit:
Of course, by no means I am trying to say here that we should speed on our roads in the inhabited areas. I put that just as an example of how useful may be to put forward the examples of other cities and countries.
