Also, many people who live on those lit streets would rather those street lights didn't exist, shining in their windows all night. I feel fortunate to live in an unincorporated urban area that's like a city in many ways but we don't have street lights nearby. Cities don't need to be illuminated 24/7.
- dorchadas 5y agoHaving one outside my window, I absolutely 100% agree. I just always hear the issues of "What about pedestrians being safe" (which isn't even an issue where I live; it's not a pedestrian street or anywhere near the city center area), so was trying to find a way to combat that. That's why I think some reflective shielding could do well, pointing the light where we want it to go, and also enable us to light with less energy and light needed in general.
