It can be everywhere, 33 (depend) on the time of day. And it is not thought of as a substance. It is light. 34 idea of light pollution has developed with the increase of lights in cities. In many areas, this light makes 35 difficult or impossible to observe stars and planets in the night sky. In 1988, the International Dark-Sky Association 36 (form). This organization wants to reduce light pollution in the night sky. It also urges the 37 (effect) use of electric lighting. There are a number of reasons 38 light pollution is important.
