Reports have also argued that certain types of air pollution such as smoke, can further exacerbate light pollution because it can cause light to scatter in different directions, brightening “night” skies further (3).
Guide Light pollution
In a descriptive sense, light pollution occurs when artificial light is used in a poor or excessive way, especially at night, causing negative effects in the environment and the view of the night sky.
