SUMMARY:Under One Sky 2025
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve hung out with us recently at the Dungeness River Nature Center or elsewhere around the peninsula and are ready to take action to protect the night\, we have a great opportunity for you.  Join us at Under One Sky\, a global online conference organized by DarkSky International\, taking place November 7–8\, 2025. It’s a 24-hour journey around the world – sessions timed for every region\, workshops\, inspiring global stories\, and hands-on solutions focused on protecting the night. \nFrom the comfort of your home (or your favourite star-gazing spot)\, you’ll immerse yourself in a global perspective that spans lighting initiatives in cities\, community efforts in rural landscapes\, and conservation successes across continents. The conference is built around sharing real-world solutions\, ways to design lighting that respects darkness\, advocate for policy changes\, engage communities\, and monitor impact. You’ll leave this conference with new tools and connections as we work to turn the tide on the growth of light pollution to protect the night.” And because it’s a full around-the-clock virtual event\, you can join sessions at times that work for you\, whether that’s early morning or late evening in our Pacific time zone. \nMeet people that can teach you more about engaging in community outreach\, habitat conservation\, volunteer leadership\, educational programmes\, lighting policy\, or simply hang out with others that love the dark sky as much as you do. Whether you’re an experienced advocate or just beginning to explore how artificial light affects ecosystems\, wildlife\, human health\, and our view of the stars\, you’ll find sessions crafted for your level of interest. \nRegistration is required to attend the event and it’s sessions. If\, in these challenging times\, the registration fee is a barrier to attending we’ve got your back. Community Registration is still available and allow you to participate for fee. \nSee you there!

SUMMARY:Lights Out: Discover the Hidden Impacts of Light Pollution
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an eye-opening presentation\, “Lights Out\,” exploring how the glow of artificial light at night affects everything from migrating birds to our view of the Milky Way. \nLight pollution—sometimes called “ALAN\,” or artificial light at night—disrupts the natural rhythms of wildlife\, adds unnecessary CO₂ to our atmosphere\, and dims the stars that once guided travelers and songbirds alike. But the good news is that it’s a problem we can all help solve. In this one-hour program\, DarkSky Board Member and OPAS Member Patty Griffin looks at how light pollution interferes with the delicate balance of ecosystems\, especially for birds navigating by starlight during migration. You’ll also learn simple\, practical steps you can take at home and in your community to help bring back the night. The evening will close with a friendly Q&A session. \nCome curious\, leave inspired—and see how protecting the night sky protects life on Earth.
