WATCH WEBINAR ON YOUTUBE  – SE WEBINAR PÅ YOUTUBE

DCL’s activities are very much so focused on light. But light comes together with darkness. Through millions of years of evolution, plants, humans, and wildlife have adjusted to the natural rhythm provided by the shift in day and nighttime. However, light pollution is estimated to have an annually growth of 10% per year globally. The consequences are both serious and alarming. Impacts on the ecology and climate are already very apparent in many parts of the world, and are affecting us humans profoundly, particular in the more developed countries.

Kerem Ali Asfuroglu, Founder at Dark Source will in this webinar walk us though the consequences we face by not addressing light pollution with adequate care. Kerem has dedicated his career to these tremendously important issues, and we are honored that Kerem will take the time to explore more on the importance of darkness related issues.

Kerem Asfuroglu is the founder of Dark Source, an award-winning lighting design studio driven by environmental values based in London & Dublin. Following his graduation from Wismar University – Architectural Lighting Design MA in 2010, Kerem has worked in the lighting industry for almost a decade before setting up Dark Source in 2019. He has been awarded with the title of Dark Sky Defender by the IDA for advocating the importance of darkness through design. Some of his environmental lighting projects include the Plas Y Brenin Outdoor Centre, Presteigne Dark Sky Masterplan, Newport Dark Sky Masterplan, Cloughjordan Ecovillage, Clwydian Range & Dee Valley and Dark Sky Planning Guidelines for Cumbria.

The webinar is in English.
Participation in the webinar is free.

DCL’s aktiviteter er i høj grad fokuseret på lys. Men lys kommer sammen med mørke. Gennem millioner af års evolution har planter, mennesker og dyreliv tilpasset sig den naturlige rytme, som skiftet mellem dag og nat giver.
Men lysforureningen anslås at vokse med 10 % om året på verdensplan. Konsekvenserne er både alvorlige og alarmerende. Indvirkningen på økologi og klima er allerede meget tydelig i mange dele af verden og påvirker os mennesker dybt, især i de mere udviklede lande.

Kerem Ali Asfuroglu, grundlægger af Dark Source, vil i dette webinar gennemgå de konsekvenser, vi står over for, hvis vi ikke håndterer lysforurening med tilstrækkelig omhu. Kerem har dedikeret sin karriere til disse enormt vigtige spørgsmål, og vi er beærede over, at Kerem vil tage sig tid til at udforske vigtigheden af mørkerelaterede spørgsmål.

Kerem Asfuroglu er grundlægger af Dark Source, et prisvindende lysdesignstudie drevet af miljømæssige værdier med base i London og Dublin. Efter sin eksamen fra Wismar University – Architectural Lighting Design MA i 2010, har Kerem arbejdet i belysningsbranchen i næsten et årti, før han etablerede Dark Source i 2019. Han er blevet tildelt titlen Dark Sky Defender af IDA for at tale for vigtigheden af mørke gennem design. Nogle af hans projekter inden for miljøbelysning omfatter Plas Y Brenin Outdoor Centre, Presteigne Dark Sky Masterplan, Newport Dark Sky Masterplan, Cloughjordan Ecovillage, Clwydian Range & Dee Valley og Dark Sky Planning Guidelines for Cumbria.
