Educating the Public about Light Pollution
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 May 2016
Abstract
Using low-gain DMSP data, we obtained absolute values of light energy loss ejected to space from different cities. Showing these data to local people in each city encourages them to try to reduce light energy loss. This educational approach is very effective in reducing light pollution.
