I know a guy that very was vocal against street lights in the 90's.
He was/is an amateur astronomer that modified his rooftop to be an actual telescope and the street lamps were angled in a certain way that like 40% of the light produced by them was shinning to the sky, making his observations harder to perform.
He went to my school to warn about light pollution and also teach us about planets and all that good stuff.
I think he became frustrated and quitted because last time I saw anything about him he was all about rescuing dogs from the street. :/
