[河北部分重点中学2020高二期末]Light pollution is blocking a starry view of the night sky for more than half of people across England,research has found.
Fifty-seven percent of stargazers(观星者)struggled to see more than 10 stars,while just 2%of participants said they experienced a truly dark sky making them able to count more than 30,according to the research by the Campaign to Protect Rural England(CPRE).People in the countryside were encouraged to count how many stars they could see with eyes within the constellation(星座)of Orion,which is visible only in the winter months.
Campaigners said the results of the star count,supported by the British Astronomical Association,showed the problem of light pollution and how it affected one of the countryside's most magical sights-a dark,starry night sky. They said the results of the research to map England's night skies suggested more could be done by the government,local councils and the general public to reduce the negative effects of artificial light from streets and buildings.
Emma Marrington,a campaigner at the CPRE,said,"We're hugely grateful to the people who took time to get out and take part in our star count. But it's deeply disappointing that the vast majority were unable to experience the natural wonder of a truly dark sky blanketed with stars. Without any action,our night sky will continue to be lost under a covering of artificial light,ruining the health of the natural world."
She added,“The star count results show just how far-reaching the light from street lights and buildings can be. Light doesn't respect boundaries,and careless use can see it spread for miles from cities.”
She suggested better-designed lighting,street light dimming(暗淡)systems and part-night lighting where some street lights are turned off during the small hours should provide an opportunity to limit the damage caused by light pollution,reduce carbon emissions and save money.
