The Right Light At Night

26 October, 2023 @ 6:30 pm

​Steve Tonkin is back with his popular talk The right light at Night.

In 2016 the American Medical Association declared exposure to Artificial Light at Night (ALAN) to be a human health hazard, but the biotic harms of ALAN are not limited to humans. It seems that everywhere we look at the natural world, from migrating birds to mating frogs, from foraging mammals to freshwater plankton, from coral spawning to already-endangered bats, it is adversely affected.

ALAN is recognised as one of the major drivers of biodiversity collapse (the others being climate change, habitat loss, and pesticide use). It is also the one that is most easily rectified.

This is a free event. But spaces are limited so please book your place using the link below:
