Ruskin Hartley has spent over 20 years working in conservation and is now the Executive Director of the International Dark Sky Association, which is the recognized authority on light pollution that's leading the way in the mission to preserve the night globally.

In this podcast episode, Ruskin sheds light on why artificial light is a form of pollution—just like air pollution and water pollution; how light pollution impacts our health and the health and natural behaviors of wildlife, such as migratory birds that navigate by moonlight and starlight; and more.
