AI was recently approached by the Green Party on this subject and we are starting a campaign against light pollution.
LIGHT POLLUTION - Astronomy Ireland is starting a campaign about the problem of artificial lighting of the night sky. As well as restoring the natural beauty of the heavens for people interested in star-gazing we will be helping the environment and saving millions of euros of tax payers money. For details or to get involved email lp@astronomy.ie
The more help we get the Better

Good to have you on board. ILPAC has been working with the Green Party since about 2003 on this.
