UK goverment anti light pollution e-petition

[PRG]

Appologies if this has been posted before, but there is now an e-petition calling the government to support the Campaign for Dark Skies and help reduce light pollution by reconfiguring street lighting etc.

Needs 100 000 signatures to get debated in the Commons!

The link is here: Stargazing - e-petitions

Is this the same petition or a new one ?.

Done! 100,000 is an awful lot. Has that stargazing live thing happened yet? This seems like the best time to get people signing up. Coxy should be telling people about it.

I can't help feeling that the wording appeals more to emotion than the economics of the case, and therefore is unlikely to get an enormous amount of non-astronomer support. But I have signed it in the hope ...

It runs to 2013 so i am guessing its a new one, signed and posted a link on facebook.

i wonder if this should be a sticky until it ends?

After all, this is something that is important to the group

[Psychobilly]

Keep signing but remember there is no guarantee of a debate if the petition get's 100,000 sigs...

Signed and confirmed email, will pass around. This should definately be a sticky so other members wont miss it.

Fingers crossed something will be done in the near future about LP.
