LIGHTS OUT

Ross wants to embrace darkness

“The village of Ross looks to reduce its night-time lighting. Community members have been working on an application for place certication through DarkSky International, a nonprofit that aims to preserve and protect the night-time environment and our heritage of dark skies through quality outdoor lighting. If successful in its bid, the locality will join more than 200 Dark Sky Places across 22 countries that are recognised for their stargazing potential.” Story by Aaron Smith Sunday Examiner 20 April 2025
