Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
You're viewing a single thread.
Going to write stern but fairly worded letter to Geelong council about a very bright street light they've installed. Honestly 3 x the lumens of a normal street light and it's on a road that has next to zero (0) traffic.
It is also next to an area has a heap of active frogs (when weather permits). Insects are going to head towards the light.
It will go a little something like this:
"Oi g-town cunts dim your shitty light,
regards
Bottom racer".
I intend to do this before the pobblebonk awakens. They need food.
There needs to be laws against toxic lighting. Not just for street lights but also public buildings and apartment buildings.
Fully agree.
There was a movement a while ago trying to get buildings and advertising etc. to shield lights and point them down towards the ground but it fell on deaf ears.
I truly believe shitty lighting is contributing to insect decline (and all that rely on them).
Oh your comment reminded me, I went past that new joint on Kew Junction. Jesus but that electronic billboard facing Studley Park Road is eye searingly bright. I hope the building across the road isn't occupied, it's like a bloody floodlight
You might need a map to point out the problem light. Preferably a hand drawn one with a big red circle and arrows.
"24 8x10 coloured photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was" May you have more luck than Officer Obie.
