BHO FIGHTS LIGHT POLLUTION

 

Buckhorn Observatory promotes the use of responsible lighting including full-cut-off outdoor lights for home and commercial use.

On May 6, 2008 John Crossen of Buckhorn Observatory made a presentation to Galway-Cavendish & Harvey Township Council to urge their adoption of lighting standards. Since then, he has spoken to a number of groups to support the introduction of light pollution standards and bylaws.

Click here for a copy of that presentation, which can be adapted for use with your council or politicians.

If you'd like John to give a presentation to your cottage association or other organization, call him at 705.657.2544 or by email at johnstargazer@xplornet.com
