Call on the lights!

On the Dvice blog, I was reading about some places in Germany where you can call the town office type thing and ask them to turn on street lights. So if you were walking home alone you could have the lights on when ever you wanted, and the places that are doing  this it says that they are saving 25% more energy than they were before they starting doing this. The lights only turn on for 15 minutes though. I think that’s enough time to walk by, don’t you?

People who walk dogs can call the town and ask them to turn on a route of lights so they can enjoy the view of the town. Even if it iwas 3 in the morning.

thats a great idea, people can’t just walk in the dark, they can’t really see anything well enough. its great that the town office is doing this. great idea.
