We are pleased to announce the launch of a new policy brief (https://lnkd.in/eV-xpT2u) developed by the PLAN-B Project and the AquaPLAN project.
Titled Restoring the Night, the brief builds on the 2023 European Light Pollution Manifesto (https://lnkd.in/ewNjNBnx) and outlines a strategic framework to address artificial light at night (#ALAN) as an emerging environmental issue.
๐๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐ญ๐ฌ:
โพ 99% of Europeโs population and biodiversity live under light-polluted skies
โพ 30% of vertebrates and over 60% of invertebrates are nocturnal
โพ Light pollution contributes to an estimated $3.4 trillion in annual lost ecosystem service value globally
The brief calls for action through 10 ๐ค๐๐ฒ ๐ซ๐๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ, including:
โพ Recognising light pollution as environmental pollution
โพ Defining ecological limits for ALAN
โพ Establishing a coherent, harmonised EU regulatory framework
โพ Requiring monitoring, transparency, and data sharing
โพ Supporting education, awareness, and international cooperation
Since its launch in April, our light pollution policy campaign (https://lnkd.in/dE-76cWC) has received support from organisations including Buglife, the Universitร di Pisa, the Tyrolean Environmental Ombuds Office, and the Royal Astronomical Society, as well as individuals from over 40 countries.
We invite institutions, experts, and individuals to:
โพ Share the policy brief
โพ Join national and regional implementation efforts
โพ Support the campaign as an individual or organisation (sign the form: https://lnkd.in/dE-76cWC or contact us to get an official Support Letter)
โพ Help disseminate and translate the brief
Read the policy brief and Executive Summary: https://lnkd.in/eV-xpT2u

We believe that with coordinated action, strong policy, and public engagement, we can ensure that artificial light is used responsibly, purposefully, and within ecological limits.
We thank everyone who was involved with us in developing the policy brief and policy action: Yana Yakushina, Professor Mike Wood, Alejandro Sanchez de Miguel, Alexandre Nascimento, Graeme Sherriff, Michael Lomas PhD, Reinhard A. Klenke, Elena Maggi, DarkSky, LightingEurope, and many others!

NEW PAPER: The Theory of Economic Complexity
The Economic Complexity Index or ECI is a widely used empirical tool with an unclear theoretical basis. In this paper, we change that by formally deriving ECI for several production functions and showing what it really does.
In a single-factor model, ECI separates economies that are better or worse endowed with the factor. In a model with many factors, ECI tells us which economies have a higher probability of being endowed with many of them--regardless of what these factors are.
The idea that you can measure the combined presence of economic factorsโno matter how they are defined--is an interesting departure in thinking. It provides a theoretical basis for the use of complexity measures in economic development. In the paper, we show this property is robust to substantial levels of noise and applies to other production functions, as long as they are not multiplicatively separable.
We also show that our model explains differences in network structure, like those observed between the product space (a network with a core and a periphery) and the research space (which is shaped as a ring). In the product space, the core-periphery structure tells us that capabilities are correlated across countries (e.g. Singapore scores high across all capabilities and Mali scores low across all of them). In the case of the research space, the ring structure is given by the fact that the capabilities of each field are only similar to those of a few neighboring fields.
Our main model is a generalization of Kremerโs O-Ring model with factors that can be made specific to each economy and activity. In this model, the output of an economy in an activity is proportional to the probability that it is not missing the factors that the activity requires. This allows us to easily generate output matrices as large as those observed in the empirical literature and calculate their ECI. We also used this opportunity to embed this model into a short-run equilibrium framework showing that prices increase concavely with the complexity of a product and that economies should converge to the wages of others with similar levels of complexity.
This is one of the most fun papers that I have worked in a long time. If you want to geek out with the mathematical foundations of economic complexity theory, please give it a read.

A luminaire isnโt just a technical object; it primarily serves the human experience within the city. As an essential component of urban furniture, its aesthetics directly contribute to the quality of life and the feelings of people moving through our streets.๐ง
As designer and manufacturer of public lighting solutions, we master the entire process: from product design to optical engineering, including lighting consultancy.
Our commitment is to create luminaires that are both durable and aesthetically pleasing, designed for precise and appropriate lighting.
Our solutions, such as Gemme, Orna, and Corto, go beyond simple illumination. They are true technical solutions crafted to beautify public spaces, thereby transforming our urban environments. ๐ก
Letโs bring your lighting project to life!

โWalking through neighborhoods, volunteers identified sources of light pollutionโฆ
Surprisingly, streetlights only made up 10.3% of all the light sources. Many (48.2%) were illuminated private windows, and commercial windows added another 7.4%. Other source types made up the remaining 18%, including illuminated signs, floodlights, facade illuminations, video screens, decorative lights, and illuminated house numbers and door bells.โ

How can you protect nature if you ignore the night?
Environmental policies, plans, and intentions overwhelmingly ignore temporal changes and the needs of the nocturnal environment.
#DontNeglectTheNight is our new campaign, calling on everyone to protect the whole natural world, not just the parts we see during the day.

๐จ Call for Papers โ Special Issue inย Tourism Geographies Journal
After Dark: Atmospheres, Temporalities, and Embodied Practices of Nighttime Tourism
Iโm proud to announce the launch of a special issue that I am leading asย Guest Editor, dedicated to exploring how tourism is shaped byโand shapesโthe night.
Asย Coordinator of the International Night Studies Network, my work has long centered on the multiple ways nighttime becomes a critical space for cultural expression, urban transformation, and affective experience. In this issue, I am joined by my colleague and co-editorย Dr. Jordi Nofreย (Coordinator of the LXNights Research Group), with whom I share a deep commitment to advancing Night Studies as a vital field of inquiry.
This special issue invites contributions on a wide range of nighttime tourism practicesโfrom light art festivals and queer nightlife to astrotourism, nocturnal wellness, religious vigils, night diving, and night safaris. It aims to offer new insights into the rhythms, atmospheres, politics, and aesthetics of tourismย after dark.
