My finger is on the switch!If we all do it,we might realise the star light is adequate and most artificial lights are needed due to 'light pollution'!Also maybe a temporary cease in wars,armaments production,oil and gas drilling,mining,driving cars and thinking selfish thoughts.
Im concerned by some the directions the UN is manipulated,this at least is a step forward to the true nature of the organisation.
Enjoy the stars :)
