 Floodlight threat in Warwickshire village
I live in a small rural village outside Warwick, called Claverdon.
We are lucky in having no street lights....very rare i believe!
This is excellent for local wildlife, especially nocturnal animals together with amateur astromoners or just star gazers. However, there are plans afoot for the local tennis court to erect 6.7meter tall floodlights. Please help us in our campaign to stop this!
....light pollution is a major concern....
....Its not very 'green' is it!
....the area is a conservation area....
....the tennis courts are grossly underused in the daytime anyway........
....owls and bats may be disturbed..... I would love to know more about how exactly they will be affected!
....the lighting posts themselves will be an eyesore for anyone visiting the village and will inflict upon the natural scenery....
To me this is highly alarming so any advice/ help would be extremely helpful in our campaign..... |
