Light pollution is a serious threat to wildlife & people, affecting 96% of UK land which compromises health, wastes energy + disturbs tranquillity.

Find out more about how lighting affects different animals + how it impacts our health and well-being https://t.co/KTT3U1RSUK

[Devon Local Nature Partnership @DevonLNP]

We can all play our part to help reducing light pollution, here's how

Avoid using lighting when not essential
Reduce light spill e.g. shutting curtains at night
Ensure that lights are only on when required
Reduce brightness e.g. choosing bulbs with lower lumens
Use warm lighting
