I was inspired this weekend at the #JMU campus that our efforts can have lasting impacts. Dr. Bogard advocated for the #naturalnight here during his time there as a professor.

These clever lamps have a semi-recessed light, with no sides to keep #lightpollution from escaping UP from the sides.

Have you ever wondered how a #shearwater fledgling flies from its nest to the places where they are grounded by #LightPollution?
We've used GPSs with remote download to track their flights & published this paper doi.org/10.3389/fevo...

#lightpollution isn't always created by lights being pointed into the sky, rather light rays "escaping" due to insufficient shielding.The V shape shows the light travels UP even from the SIDE of the fixture, continuing straight at an angle. Many similar on poles #darksky #savethenight
