Urban Light Pollution Might Be Worsening Allergies
Research indicates that elevated levels of urban light pollution may be exacerbating allergy symptoms. According to the findings, trees situated in brightly lit city areas begin releasing pollen earlier in the spring and continue into the fall for a longer duration. This extended production period effectively lengthens the allergy season by up to 130 days annually.
