International Dark-Sky Association

Description

• Established in 1988, the International Dark-Sky Association is an educational, environmental 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to protecting and preserving the nighttime environment and our heritage of dark skies through quality outdoor lighting. In the last twenty-five years, IDA has become the leading advocate and recognized authority for preserving and protecting the night environment, and has taken the lead in identifying and publicizing the adverse impacts of artificial lighting on wildlife, the environment, and human health. We accomplish our mission, nationally and internationally, through the work our 55-plus chapters, located in 15 different countries. IDA is governed by a 13-member international board of directors, which includes astronomers, scientists, light pollution advocates, and lighting engineers and designers. IDA also proactively advances light pollution abatement by working with manufacturers, planners, legislators, and citizens to provide lighting options that are energy efficient, cost effective, and dark sky friendly. Examples of current projects and accomplishments include our work with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) / Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), our Losing the Dark educational film, the International Dark Sky Places, the Parks and Protected Areas programs, our Model Lighting Ordinance, and the Fixture Seal of Approval program.
