For more information about light pollution, check out:   
http://www.darksky.org/  

The International Dark-Sky Association's goal is to fight light and air 
pollution so we can see the stars at night.  However, instead of carrying 
signs or shooting out street lamps, they educate people and especially local 
governments about ways to SAVE MONEY while maintaining safe lighting levels 
by using more efficient lighting.
