Wildlife

Bluff’s wildlife depends on natural light cues for survival. When the natural behaviors of local animals are altered by artificial light, it disrupts the balance of the ecosystem, ultimately affecting other living organisms in the environment.

Human Health

Dark skies support human health by maintaining our natural circadian rhythms, which regulate sleep, hormone production, and overall well-being. Reducing light pollution can improve sleep quality, lower stress levels, and reduce the risk of various chronic health conditions.

Light Pollution

Light pollution, the adverse effect of artificial lighting, poses serious threats to the environment. It is the byproduct of energy waste and inefficient lighting, carrying both a financial expense and a cost to our natural world.
