The thing that really fucks me off about light pollution is that most of it can be avoided by simply designing street lights so that they don't shine up into the sky.

People don't need street lights to shine up into the sky. People tend to stick firmly to the ground and that's where the light should be directed. If you are in an airplane a few small flashy lights should suffice to prevent other planes from crashing into you, you certainly don't need any help at all from street lights.

If you look at a photo of the USA taken at night from space then you see that most of the major continental observatories are being crowded out by light pollution, and it's not even fucking required,

aggagagsgdasaggg,
i fucking fucking fucking hate light pollution, if i could i would cut it up and jump up and down on it a million times until it was unrecognisable.

please, please, turn off the lights *sigh*
