Summary/Abstract: Light pollution- a widespread yet often neglected environmental issue—carries significant implications for biodiversity, human health, and energy use. Until now, corporate sustainability reports have largely excluded this crucial factor, focusing instead on more visible pollutants. However, recent updates to the European Union s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) guidelines, effective from 2024, are set to change this. These new standards require companies to assess and disclose their contributions to light pollution, integrating this measure into a broader circular economy framework.
