Kamchatka's 'Orange Anomaly' Sparks Light Pollution Concerns, Meeting Planned
Residents in Kamchatka's Elizovsky district have been witnessing an unusual 'orange anomaly' in the sky for days. The source of this phenomenon is believed to be a nearby greenhouse complex in Razdolnoe, which is causing light pollution. Roman Vasilevsky, deputy chairman of the regional government, has proposed a zoom meeting with the complex's leadership to address this issue. The greenhouse complex, which produces tomatoes and cucumbers for local residents, has been emitting a bright glow at night. While it has a shading system, it is designed to protect plants from sunlight, not to reduce light pollution. Ecologists from 'Ecology of Kamchatka' have raised concerns about this issue, warning that the illumination could have negative effects on wildlife, birds, and human biorhythms. Vasilevsky's suggestion for a zoom meeting aims to discuss potential solutions to mitigate this problem. The zoom meeting between Vasilevsky and the greenhouse complex leadership is expected to explore ways to reduce light pollution, ensuring a balance between agricultural production and environmental sustainability. No further details about the date or specific actions to be discussed have been provided.
