It must be hard to sleep at night with all that light.
Not all of us are lucky enough to have an year round sunlight supply.
Is probably more a case of blinded by electric lights here.
Ahhh you’re not taking light pollution into account!
Someone needs to read about the effects of artificial lighting
Except viewing in the sunlight.
If this is true, i wonder how much is attributed to the shortage of light when it's dark.
Many people aren't attuning it to outdoor light levels.
I am comfortable with saying that light keeps us from sleeping.
This assumes you have sunlight outside in the first place.
