HELP SAVE THE NIGHT SKY!
We are losing our heritage of starry night skies. Poor, inefficient outdoor lighting is
causing glare and “light pollution”. This wastes energy and increases greenhouse
gas emissions.
You can help by joining SYDNEY OUTDOOR LIGHTING IMPROVEMENT SOCIETY
(SOLIS). SOLIS aims to educate and inform about quality outdoor lighting and its
benefits. We also lobby councils, government and other bodies to promote good
lighting practice. SOLIS meetings are held third Monday night of each month at
Sydney Observatory.
Individual membership is $20 pa. Donations are also welcome. Cheques payable to “SOLIS c/- NSAS”,
