Fireflies are enchanting, but you only spot them for a moment before they disappear.

@VivetVeritate @jawnquincyadams Many people don’t even realize that they are contributing to the loss of fireflies. The obsession with ranking, blowing, and removing fallen leaves greatly impacts fireflies existence. Leave the leaves! https://t.co/nwdCWjtE9d

$880 billion in Medicaid cuts means senior citizens kicked out of nursing homes and onto the street.

All to pay for a giant tax cut for corporations and billionaires.

It's the scam of the century.

@Myrmecos It’s a problem for Fireflies! Hard for a male to attract a mate with bright lights out shining him. #Light #pollution is negatively impacting populations all over the #World.

Let's talk about light pollution. Components include glare, skyglow, & light trespass. The good news? Solutions like shielding, using warmer color temperatures, controls & sensors, & simply being thoughtful about how we use light exist—better lights for better nights. #IDSW2022

Eternal Fireflies looking for a livable planet. Protect fireflies by: leaving the leaves, reducing pesticides, and reducing light pollution! #Fireflies #reduce #Light #pollution #LeaveTheLeaves

Want to protect the night from light pollution? Why not get started in your backyard and ensure that the lighting around your residence is both community and night-sky friendly by certifying your home with IDA’s Dark Sky Friendly Home Lighting Program: https://t.co/QqNi3iFMxt
