The Sierra Club Loma Prieta Chapter and Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society announce our upcoming 3-hour symposium on dark skies and bird-safe building design: Light at Night: A Glowing Hazard.

The symposium will be held on Zoom on Wednesday, November 16, 2022, at 1:00 pm PT.

The use of LED technology and energy-saving lighting fixtures bring with them a pervasive and harmful effect: the over-lighting of our nights. The symposium will focus on the biological and physical effects of lighting up the night and provide solutions that guard both our health and the environment while providing safe and practical lighting solutions.

Our speakers include global experts on artificial light at night and light pollution:

• Drs. Travis Longcore and John Barentine

• Dr. Christine Sheppard from the American Bird Conservancy will present on the impact of lighting on migratory birds and discuss solutions to reduce bird collisions.

• Mary Coolidge will share advocacy experience and outcomes in Portland, Oregon
