The “if <people> don’t like <x>, they can move” template has never been very convincing, and I think in this case even less so, since it’s about citizens seeking what they believe is an objective improvement for all. The point of light pollution advocacy isn’t to make cities worse; it’s to make them better. Light can be used in a thoughtful manner that promotes a healthy sleep cycle, that provides aesthetic improvements for the city and the sky, that conserves energy, and doesn’t negatively affect the wide variety of plants and animals that depend on light to determine the season, or navigate by the stars or moon.
