Did you know light pollution now compromises 80% of the world's population?

πƒπšπ«π€π§πžπ¬π¬ 𝐒𝐧 πŸ“πŸ–πŸ— invites you to feel what's lost when we no longer share the dark. 

At its heart is a rich amber hue - a 589-nanometre wavelength used as a compromise colour where artificial light is unavoidable, minimising harm to plant, animal and human life.
