RE: https://aus.social/@kattekrab/116861965032683503 One of the less recognised pollution related to cars is light pollution. Cars require a lot of street lighting that is on all night and the urban sprawl that cars encourage means there needs to be a lot more area with bright street lights. Large LED billboards are only there to advertise to people driving past at high speed in cars at night. #CarsRuinCities
