GLOW2.0 animation - Light pollution and responsible lighting for tourism

Along with the undeniable benefits of artificial light, light pollution has become one of the most common and fastest growing forms of environmental impacts. Light pollution is poorly directed or excessive artificial light at night (ALAN) that disturbs and impacts people, animals and plants. This light pollution animation explores the causes of light pollution, its effects and ways to reduce it. The animation was produced by third-year media students of Karelia University of Applied Sciences as a commission of the GLOW2.0 project.
