A station may have a low profile sign that is regulated by ordinance, yet the rational for the law ends up defeated by the excessive light - the problem is the number of fixtures. Brighter is not better. Even heavy blinds sometimes fail to make rooms dark enough for a good night's sleep. Lighting a brick wall simply for architectural vanity is a sin. Please stop this practice.
Flags lit by flood light are even more unpatriotic.
Even parked in a lot, cars pollute. This goes for parking lots in general. Money can be saved just turning off lights that do nothing more than shine on empty pavement most of the night. Again, using lights burns fossil fuels and generates air pollution. Be kind and don't shine.
