Hi all,

I'd like to update that the petition closed with a signature total of 11638 so a response from the government was posted. It laid out a lot of retrospective legislation which can be built on.

I'm sure those that signed will have received an email detailing the response which gives various links to how the law stands.

I would like to thank all those again that supported this to say myself and others will continue to pursue the protection of our dark skies for the sake of the stars, nature and health and look further into what can be done to reduce the light pollution within the existing legislation and by pushing for changes to further enforce this.

Best regards

Damian

Do you mind if I post that link on another forum Martin as others I'm sure would be interested to read it.

Thanks

Damian

Here's how the light pollution in the UK look's from space.

The image above was taken from the International Space Station by Astronaut Paulo Nespoli (European Space Agency) during his six month mission. Tim Peake also has quite a few photo's on the net.

The main cities can easily be picked out, and looking closer you can make out major road networks such as the M25 around London. The problem is growing worse.

The petition can be found below. If you do sign you will receive an email which you have to respond to for the signature to go through. It is a government website and you won't receive any spam by doing this.

Many thanks Steve.

I agree that the higher count is un-achievable but to get to 10K would at least bring this to the attention of the government. We can but try

There has been some lengthy post's since the link to the petition was posted last and I'm just worried it will be lost to those reading the thread so here it is again with the details:-
