I recently passed the proposed site for the Community Stadium near Falmer early one Monday morning and the amount of light pollution and noise, even at that time of day, was high.

Street lights and those from the University of Sussex beamed way up into the night sky, with little, if any, concern for light pollution.

I can't see how the maximum 20 days a year it has been said the flood lights would be on at the stadium would harm the environment any more that it already is.

Readers should drive there during the night and have a look.
