In a thought-provoking episode of Restoring Darkness, Michael Colligan, Mark Baker, and Dr. Amardeep Dugar rethink lighting design, challenging outdated metrics and advocating for life-centric lighting—an approach that considers the broader ecological impact of artificial light.  🌍 Key Takeaways:  
Outdated Efficiency Metrics – The industry’s continued reliance on lumens per watt is hindering progress in sustainable lighting design. 
Beyond Human-Centric Lighting – Dr. Dugar highlights that lighting decisions should take into account all life forms, not just human needs. 
Darkness as a Resource – Instead of treating darkness as an absence, it should be recognized as an essential environmental necessity for biological and ecological balance. 
Cultural Perspectives – Ancient civilizations revered darkness, but modern society has vilified it—it's time to shift the narrative. 
Advocacy for Change – Lighting designers and professionals have a responsibility to redefine lighting standards that preserve natural darkness rather than disrupt it. 
 🔥 It’s time to move beyond “brighter is better” and embrace sustainable, thoughtful lighting that respects all species. What’s your take on life-centric lighting?
