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
