Steven Mariconda of Saddle Brook, a volunteer advocate for the nonprofit Dark Sky International, will discuss light pollution and how it affects health and the environment in New Jersey.
Learn what light pollution is and how it negatively impacts ecosystems, wildlife, human health, and how it obscures our view of the starry night sky. Learn about and discuss responsible environmentally friendly outdoor lighting practices and policy suggestions to reduce light pollution in North Jersey and beyond.
The event will include a presentation on why dark sky's matter, some naked eye astronomy, training in how to participate in our community science project, and fun and games. Join us for our community science reception as well.
