The ocean absorbs approximately one-third of all human-caused carbon dioxide emissions at a rate of 300 tons per second, which helps slow global climate change. But, due to that carbon dioxide absorption, the ocean is now 30 percent more acidic than before the Industrial Revolution, and the rate of change in ocean pH, called ocean acidification, is likely unparalleled in Earth’s history.

With today’s levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide so high, the ocean’s help comes at a cost to marine life and the millions of people who depend on healthy oceans.

You are looking at "skyglow" also refered to as night pollution. LEED Sustainable Sites credits encourage strategies that minimize the impact on ecosystems and water resources. If your building minimizes light trespass to the atmosphere, you could be eligible for SS Credit 1 for 1 LEED point. We insist on cooling inside spaces within plus or minus 2 degrees during the day and then light up the sky at night. No wonder the utiliiy companies are so good at counting Benjamins.
