More lights clearly haven’t worked in reducing violent crime either
It's good 2 be able to see what your doing during a crime I guess lol.

Or maybe it’s because 99.9% of the time the night sky is boring as ****.I take myself off up on the moors around here and camp out for the night in my bivvy bag. Just me and the stars and the sound of the ocean in the background. Puts you right in touch with your place in the universe seeing the glory of the cosmos all laid out before your eyes.
Not enough people get to experience that imo. Because they are too busy slumped on the sofa in front of the glowy box. Or they simply live in areas where you can barely see the night sky due to so many street lights, security lights, shops and malls lit up, car parks illuminated and on and on it goes.

Agreed - but maybe if they were subsidised by government grants it would make them more affordable. Also make it compulsory for all company cars to be electric vehicles and give them tax breaks for it.
Saff will be pleased to know that I’m involved in a campaign down here to protect dark skies.
where I live, is one of the few places left in the uk where you can see the night sky uninterrupted by light pollution.
It’s such a waste of energy and a ****ing unnecessary use to light up buildings, car parks, shops etc all night long. It also interrupts animals and humans natural sleep patterns and is just generally really antisocial imo.
anyway, down to some of the work I did down here along with others. My area has been designated a dark skies park and protected for people to enjoy and for future generations![]()

Impossible to tell. They could go through the roof until we go total darkness you have just made that up.
I still remember when you told everyone on here, that you didn't need a tv licence because you didn't have a tv.
So in light of your comment and being in touch with the cosmos, why did you get a tv licence after all these years...

There is no clear scientific evidence that increased outdoor lighting deters crimes. It may make us feel safer, but has not been shown to make us safer.
A 2015 study published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health found that streetlights don’t prevent accidents or crime

Thats about as accurate as me saying giving more money to the nhs doesnt cut a and e times.
The nhs getting record numbers of tax payer money but a and e times getting longer and longer.
Darksky.org probably some website aberdude uses
You need to read the studies linked on the page Bobz
You know i dont have time for that. Give us a summary like more people carrying knives doesnt mean more knife crime

Lol.
You stick to your well lit alleyways hooking up with ladyboys and I'll get my hippie on under the star laden night sky.
Just use the tried and tested its men who rape women not lack of street lighting.
You lucky you got female loving champions like brb fighting for the safety of females.
