[After reading and listening to the slogans of lighting and energy companies, municipal environmental departments and so on...]

...A reminder that #LED #lighting does not save #energy. Any #LED *consumes* energy.

More importantly: locally, each LED produces its own #lightpollution. Globally, LED is becoming one of the main causes of light pollution.

Any artificial light at night is a source of light pollution.

If all this seems obvious, good!

But it's not so obvious to (too) many.

@raulclima I'm trying to understand your first point: if a 14 watt LED replaces a 60 watt incandescent, is that not an energy savings?

@pieist @raulclima Greens want deindustrialization. They want you sitting in the dark and the cold until you die to "save the planet". Greens are a cult.
@pieist @raulclima Not even a smart cult, since they should be preaching in Mandarin or whatever the fuck they speak in India instead of English, since those guys have no pollution laws and literally dump all of their garbage into the ocean.
