To the editor:
Logan Mayor Holly Daines recently signed a proclamation urging residents and businesses to reduce light pollution. Thank you, Mayor Daines, and also to the Bridgerland Audubon Society, for helping to increase awareness of light pollution. Light pollution is bad for birds â it disrupts bird migration, foraging, and reproduction â and is also bad for people. If youâve ever had a bright streetlight shining in your bedroom window, you know that people sleep better at night with dark skies.
Light pollution refers to nighttime light that is excessive or misdirected, such as floodlights aimed outward and upward. Reducing light pollution does not require sacrificing public safety. Overly bright streetlights cast bright light, but they also create dark shadows and prevent our eyes from adjusting to the darkness. Downward-facing lights can illuminate our sidewalks, streets, and front porches without lighting up the entire sky.

The banks of an irrigation canal in Providence, Utah are a popular spot for all kinds of birds, including ducks. They should be showing up in a couple weeks but not if climate change takes away their food, safety or habitat.
