Event report: Dim It 2009--Hong Kong
The biggest star-gazing event was held in Hong Kong on the night of summer solstice. More than 3,500 buildings and organizations surrounding Victoria Harbor turned off the lights for two hours from 8 p.m. and the lights in the area were dimmed by 60% in brightness. Up to 100 telescopes were placed along the Avenue of Stars to turn the Tsimshatsui promenade into the biggest star station.
Dim It 2009 was co-organized by Friends of the Earth (HK) and The International Year of Astronomy 2009 Hong Kong League. Raising public awareness about light pollution and energy consumption were the main concerns of the event. Many buildings, shops and organizations responded to the call and the night made another step forward for appealing light pollution.
Friends of the Earth HK has more details on their website.
