LIGHT POLLUTION AND AMATEUR ASTRONOMERS
This month's meeting will focus on light pollution, and on strategies to become active on this issue in your locality. The New England Light Pollution Advisory Group (NELPAG) will lead club members in a discussion of current issues and efforts in the fight against outdoor light trespass/glare and against outdoor over-lighting. Recent announcements about global warming, combined with heightened interest in "green" practices, make this an especially good time to raise light-pollution awareness.
Here's your chance to find out what is happening at the local, state, and federal level to save our night skies. The focus of the meeting will be to lay a solid groundwork of the major issues in light pollution so attendees can discuss this effectively in your own neighborhoods and towns. A discussion of effective strategies and examples of past successes and current activities will be used. More importantly, you'll be able to ask questions of local light-pollution activists and learn how simple efforts can make a real difference in your own cities and towns.
Please join us for a pre-meeting dinner discussion at Changsho, 1712 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA at 6:00pm before the meeting. |
