Is It a Light Problem?
Look (at/for) this beautiful painting.
It (was created by/created) the famous Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh in 1889.
In Van Gogh's time, almost everyone could look up and (saw/see) a wonderful starry night sky.
Now, how (many/much) of us are as lucky as Van Gogh?
In fact, many people in today's world cannot enjoy a starry night sky.
This is so (because of/because) light pollution.
(Rest/Most) of us are familiar (to/with) air, water, and land pollution.
We know that they are (serious/seriously) problems, and we are taking action to solve them.
But did you know (which/that) light can also cause pollution?
Light pollution too (much/many) light in the wrong place (at/on) the wrong time is almost everywhere around the world.
It can have serious effects on humans and wildlife.
According to a recent report, about 80 percent of the world's population (lives/living) under skies that (are/do) not dark enough at night.
Especially in big cities, people often cannot see a starry night.
They can also suffer from sleep problems because the (natural/nature) rhythm of day and night (is disturbed by/disturbs) artificial light.
Wildlife (threatens/is threatened by) light pollution, too.
Birds that (migrate/migrating) or hunt at night find their way by natural light,
but light in big cities can cause them to (wander/wonder) off course.
Every year millions of birds die after hitting buildings that (have/has) bright lights.
Sea turtles cannot (easy/easily) find a place to lay eggs (though/since) beaches are too bright at night.
Also, many baby sea turtle die because artificial light (drawing/draws) them away from the ocean.
(Clear/Clearly), light pollution is as serious as (other/others) forms of pollution.
We have to find ways to solve the problem.
If we (do/did) not, we may see stars only in our dreams or paintings.
