You can learn more about this non-profit advocating for pristine and dark night skies on its website at www.DarkSkyOregon.org.
Every day needs a night. Life on Earth evolved under a regular cycle of dark nights and bright days—a rhythm encoded in the DNA of all living things. We need light at night for human activity, but poorly designed artificial light at night is a wasteful pollutant and has serious impacts on natural ecosystems and on human health.
Starry Nights For All!
