WRITTEN QUESTION No. 2789/98 by Graham WATSON to the Commission. Light pollution
Official Journal C 096 , 08/04/1999 P. 0147
WRITTEN QUESTION E-2789/98 by Graham Watson (ELDR) to the Commission (17 September 1998) Subject: Light pollution Light pollution is a growing problem in both urban and rural areas, causing serious physiological and ecological problems. This form of pollution also wastes electricity, which means wasted money and thereby more importantly waste of the earth's finite energy resources. Has the Commission carried out any studies into this form of pollution, and if so are there any appropriate Community initiatives? Answer given by Mr Flynn on behalf of the Commission (28 October 1998) The Commission would refer the Honourable Member to its answer to Written Questions E-1166/95(1) and E-2014/95 by Mr Whitehead(2). (1) OJ C 196, 31.7.1995. (2) OJ C 277, 23.10.1995.
