Beautiful and a bit sad. Wish we didn’t light up the night so much.

@FLAPCanada says city lights at night confuse migratory birds and cause collisions with buildings.
"Across North America, the estimated number of migrating birds killed annually in collisions with buildings ranges from 100 million to 1 billion birds." http://www.flap.org/faqs.php -
Here is a good article that mentions FLAP.https://howtoconserve.org/2016/03/25/how-to-prevent-bird-window-strikes/ …

Notice how places with lots of lights vote Dem, while the dark places vote GOP (except for N.D. oil field)?

Yup. Dems clearly waste a lot of fossil fuels and are singlehandedly responsible for global warming.

Per person electricity use is lower in the city--it's just that people are so much more concentrated. Nice try at spinning it, though.

You realize that that - the concentration in urban environments - was my exact point to schmuckaroo? It is well known virtually ALL cities - even in the reddest states - Bc of diversity, income levels, etc - vote Dem. He didn’t have an insight, just a polemic spin. Zzzzzzz

Note the large bright spot in western ND - about as large (tho not as dense) as Chicago/Houston/etc metro areas, but with no major cities anywhere nearby.

Took me a while to figure out what that was before I placed Fargo and Bismark. Then I realized...fracking.

So much light pollution.

What are all of the lights from in the Northwestern part of North Dakota from?
-
Lots of people there for oil related work.

Kind of figured it was oilfield related, but Dang!!! That's a lot of light for that part of the country!
