WE HIT 500 SIGNATURES!+Facts and News for You To Arm Yourself With

WE DID IT!! WE HIT 500 SIGNATURES!! YEAH!!! THIS DESERVES A TOAST! 🍾🍾🎆🎆 As you may have known, I was looking forward to celebrating this moment with My Team but also with those who have been a part of my movement for a long time! And just as I promised, I would give you guys a WHOLE LIST OF FACTS AND RESOURCES to arm you guys with!

Fact 1: 3000K Streetlights Emit too Much Green, Neon Yellow and Blue spectrums with only a small percentage of Orange and Red Light.

Fact 2: White/Warm White Streetlights emit too much glare. The Glare is the scattering of light particles that emit the sky glow and artificial auroras

Fact 3: 2200K-2500K Streetlights Emit Heavier Scatter but less glare. Making the particles less glowing (reflective in the sky) and denser. Allowing Darker Skies and Safer Nights. (Both Wildlife and Sleep Rhythms)

Fact 4: White/Warm White Streetlights create mental instability. They can cause higher anxiety, sleep disruption and intense emotional disruption. Causing people to act more violently and disruptively.

Fact 5: White/Warm White Streetlights Makes Road Markings and Street signs almost invisible. The Glare these markings/signs use get mirrored off the WHITE SPECTRUM, creating an illusion that the markings/signs are NOT there. This is BY FAR ONE OF THE MORE dangerous forms of these streetlights

Fact 6: White/Warm White Streetlights make driving worse. Accident rates have gone up about 1.8% since the rollouts. This may not be BIG, but it's HIGHER AND CAN RESULT into more dangerous scenarios for elderly drivers and pedestrians/cyclists

Fact 7: 2200K-2500K Streetlights create a WELCOMING AESTHETIC BUT ALSO are safer on the eyes. They produce that melatonin and serotonin part of our brain. Important for our health.

Fact 8: They Make 2200k and 2500k LED streetlight technologies but also USE LUMINS, NMS AND EMMITTING DIODIC TECHNOLOGIES that make them WAY MORE DURABLE, LESS LIKELY TO FAIL from FLICKERING TO TURNING PURPLE. Making CONTRACTS for these lights LESS CONSTANT SPENDING ON REPAIRS and LONGER LIFESPANS of up to 30 years!

Fact 9: Amber LEDS in this spectrum have also been becoming MORE and MORE OPTIMIZED for current contracts UNDER DALKIA, OR BRIGHT WHITE LEDS to use these lights THAT CAN BE REPLACED AT NO ADDITIONAL COST under the current contracts! This is BY FAR A HUGE WINNER for CONTRACTS THAT RUN on our current WHITE/WARM WHITE LED STREETLIGHT INFRASTRUCTURE that can last another 10 to 20 years. SO, these NEWER LED TECHNOLOGIES AREN'T JUST HIGH TECH but also HAVE THEIR OWN BIDDING THAT PUTS NO ADDITIONAL COSTS to replace THE CURRENT INFRASTRUCTURE WITHOUT changing the current contract!

Fact 10: The AMA (American Medical Association) keeps their bar at 3000K, but THAT'S STILL TOO HIGH. So, this needs to be lowered.

Fact 11: Silver Alerts have risen by about that 20% range.

Fact 12: Shadows can often look/appear physical in the WHITE LIGHT SPECTRUM. Making ROADS (in dark spots) appear like black voids/holes or tree shadows appear like human figures. This can be ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS FOR THOSE WHO have struggling vision.

Now let's talk about WHAT YOU CAN DO to MAKE THIS POSSIBLE! Crossroads LED ASTROPHILE SERIES is by far the best PITSTOP for CONTRACTS THAT TEND TO HAVE TO CONSTANTLY FACE REPAIRNMENTS and POPULATION BACKLASH! Because this company makes AMBER LEDS AT EXACTLY 2200K (LOWER) and ALSO NOW is currently making these streetlights EASIER THEN EVER TO ACCESS AND TO INSTALL DURING CURRENT CONTRACTS! At NO ADDITIONAL COSTS, THESE FIXTURES COME WITH LUMIN AND NM TECHNOLOGIES WITH A LIFEPAN OF UPTO 20 TO 30 YEARS depending on the fixtures you seek to get. they OFFER NBA AND PCA FIXTURES at NO ADDITIONAL COSTS for the current running contracts under Dalkia! This means, that IF YOUR CITY is USING WHITE LEDS UNDER DALKIA but replacements keep happening, THEN LOOK NO FURTHER THEN Crossroads LED ASTROPHILE SERIES!

Access Fixtures PCA Amber Streetlight Market Also makes AMBER LED STREETLIGHTS with OVER 100 DIFFERENT FIXTURES, PCA AND NBA TYPES and ARE ALSO meant to be installed with NO ADDITIONAL COSTS. Though Access Fixtures has been the LEADING AND CUTTING EDGE OF THE AMBER LED STREETLIGHTING INDUSTRY, they can have CONTRACT FEES for modifications. But! Here's the kicker! Some Contracting Companies have Access Fixtures as APART OF THE RETROFIT REBATE PROGRAMS like PNM'S RETROFIT PROGRAM that can actually either get rid of the fees ALTOGETHER or SLASH fees DOWN TO 10%-25%, REDUCING DALKIA'S CONSTANT REPAIRS like REPLACING PURPLE DEFECTS OR HAVING TO INSTALL TONS OF REMOTE BASED HARDWARE OR EVEN SIMPLY REPLACING fixtures that have been destroyed by natural forces FAR LESS. This REDUCES THE CONSTANT REPLACEMENTS from 60% DOWN TO 35% (LESS). WHICH IS A HUGE VICTORY for both these current contracts and THE ECONOMY!

So, if you live in a city WITH WHITE/WARM WHITE LED STREETLIGHTS and decide that the WHITE BLUES ARE HAVING A MAJOR IMPACT on your life, then use USA.GOV to find ALL OF YOUR WHOLE ENTIRE FEDERAL DOWN TO STATE LEVEL DOWN TO THE SEVERAL DEPARTMENTS OF YOUR STATE'S LEGISLATION to email your state!

I'll leave you with this simple draft! "Hello. I am reaching out on behalf of the white/warm white LED streetlights. They are too bright and are causing sleep disruptions. I want to request Amber LED streetlights and retrofits for my city/statewide. Whether that's using covers to give them that Amber Glow or installing new fixtures under our current policies. Thank you!"


You won't likely get a response. BUT THE MORE PEOPLE say this simple draft and the more they use the RESOURCES I PROVIDE, the harder it can become for leaders to ignore and the MORE WE CAN MAKE CHANGE on DARK SKY ORDINANCES AND STREETLIGHTING POLICIES! Thank you all for GETTING US TO 500 Signatures! Let's keep growing and let's GET TO 750! (our Next subgoal!)

AND for those WHO MAY NOT WANT TO TAKE THAT EXTRA MILE, you do NOT need to contact your state after signing this petition! A SIGNATURE IS ENOUGH and it can HELP get my campaign out there more! As THOSE WHO DO DECIDE volunteer with TEAM AMBER help with my own work! As, I DON'T HAVE TIME to contact ALL 50 STATES OR OTHER COUNTRIES! Hahah! That's why this campaign has a team behind it! You all have a great day!
