Every Action Counts

We’re building an alliance – a growing community of people who care and are ready to act.

At ADSA, we don’t just talk about light pollution -
we take action

Whether it’s councils installing smarter lighting, families contributing to citizen science, or individuals making better lighting choices at home, each step helps restore our natural night environment.

This isn’t about switching off all lights or going off-grid. It’s about smart, balanced lighting that works for people, wildlife, and the planet. It’s about designing with care, using only the light we need, and remembering that darkness is part of a healthy world.

Darkness is not the absence of light - it’s the presence of possibility.
