Whether street lights should be turned off at night depends on the specific needs of the city. Here are the pros and cons of turning off the street lights at night:
Плюс:
- The blue light emitted by the street lights may affect people’s quality of sleep. Кроме, it can also violate the lives of birds, bugs, и растения. If the light is too bright, it will pollute the night sky. Turning off the light can reduce these influences.
- Save the energy.
Минусы:
- The security of pedestrians cannot be guaranteed, especially for vulnerable groups.
- It will be more dangerous to drive at night. Accidents will happen more frequently.
The compromise will be reducing the brightness of the street lights, which can be realized with LED street lights.
