Dark Skies – nature, health, energy and society

[Howard Lawrence]

It is Big Butterfly Count time again, which is all the excuse needed to spend a bit of time just looking at your garden (if it ever warms up/stops raining). Less well known is Butterfly Conservation’s campaign against light pollution. This excellent booklet explains all about it clearly and concisely.

I particularly like the line –
“Light pollution threatens whole ecosystems”.

While we are talking about the wildlife in our neighbourhoods, Stars of the Night is another useful publication.
