Dear Editor, after your article about artificial light at night (George Herald of 27 June, https://www.georgeherald.com/News/Article/Local-News/bright-fuel-station-light-snuffed-202506250303), two local business have kindly cooperated by switching off their bright lights after dark. A great THANK YOU to the owners of Wilderness Motors, and Wilderness Pharmacy, for showing they care. Local businesses in Wilderness are part of our community and deserve our support. PS Wilderness Residents and Ratepayers Association recently adopted '10 principles for responsible lighting in Wilderness', which can be accessed at https://assets.ctfassets.net/3855dbsahaqn/6U2Tt2NiMm33uqKVhSQxvE/68bd95e6c6eb572576206e01d2b24e59/Ten_Principles_for_Responsible_Lighting_in_Wilderness.pdf
