On April 28th, the BPO Book Club had our first discussion based on a dark sky book: Leigh Ann Henion’s Night Magic -Adventures Among Glowworms, Moon Gardens, and Other Marvels of the Dark. The book offers a wonder-filled blend of night time explorations taken by the author accompanied by scientific data about the myriad deleterious effects of light pollution. Our Book Club conversation inspired us to begin imagining how we might contribute to raising awareness. Ideas ranged from appearing before congress to designing humorous bumper stickers and/or window cling-ons to encouraging others to join the next book club discussion. That’ll be on Zoom on May 26th from 6 – 7 pm and the book is: The End of Night – Searching for Natural Darkness in an Age of Artificial Light by Paul Bogard. Books are available for purchase at Eagle Harbor Books on Winslow Way on Bainbridge Island and probably at your local library too.
To join the zoom-room, all you have to do is register HERE. We’d love to see you!
