Dark Sky San Diego County

DarkSky International is a recognized global authority on light pollution, empowering the worldwide dark sky movement to protect the night sky. You can help by lighting only when and where it’s needed. Install shielded fixtures, aim light downward, minimize brightness, use dimmers and motion sensors, and choose warm color temperature rather than ‘daylight’ white. Good lighting is neighbor-friendly and wildlife-friendly, protects human health, can increase safety by reducing glare, and it can save money and energy which helps protect our planet!

Our guest speaker, Paul Ericson, is Vice President and Budget Manager, Past President, Dark Sky San Diego County and Design Principal, Electrical, Stantec Consulting Services Inc.

Paul has over 40 years of continuous involvement in the consulting engineering profession with broad design experience and a special interest in lighting design. Paul is responsible for project management including overall concept designs, specifications, and supervision of design personnel.

He is a member of DarkSky International and a past member of their Board of Directors.  As former Chair of DarkSky San Diego County, he helped Borrego Springs achieve their Dark Sky Community designation, and worked with the Julian Dark Sky Network to help the Julian community achieve their Dark Sky Community designation as well.
