It’s a quiet thought that settles like starlight on a lake—when we keep the skies dark we’re keeping a window open to the cosmos, and when we protect forests we’re saving the breath of the planet. The two can dance together, if we think in terms of policy as a kind of planetary choreography: clean energy for light, smart zoning to keep trees, and maybe even “green roofs” that both shade and reflect. It feels like writing a poem where every line is a step toward a cleaner night and a healthier Earth. So yes, I believe both can thrive if we let the science guide the art.
