The new atlas of artificial night sky brightness indicates the increase in light pollution worldwide and the precious naturally dark areas, which need our protection! The high scientific quality measures needed to make the map come from campaigns by the UCM around Madrid, from a collaboration between the UCM and the FU-Berlin around Berlin (40%) and from the Parc Astronomical Montsec and the University Barcelona in Catalonia (40%).
