“…Although lighting professionals (e.g., design and industry) increasingly acknowledge ALAN as a threat to biodiversity, there are diverging views regarding potential obstacles to light pollution mitigation (Schulte-Römer et al, 2019;Pérez Vega et al, 2021). Current technological advancements in outdoor lighting, particularly LEDs, in principle allow developing lighting mitigation strategies that balance conflicting interests between humans and biodiversity, but this potential remains largely untapped (Longcore, 2018;Bolliger et al, 2020;Deichmann et al, 2021;Jägerbrand and Bouroussis, 2021). Furthermore, LEDs are an energy efficient technology that promises net savings in energy consumption.…”
