According to the Washington Post:
Over the past decade, scientists found, the night sky has become nearly 10 percent brighter each year because of artificial lights, mainly LEDs emitting too much glare. Streetlights are part of the problem, as are sources such as illuminated billboards and stadium lights.

Lights near stadiums can often be the brightest light source of a city and can be minimized by using timers or dimmers.
Those same outdoor lights are also affecting our health. Common types of LED lights contain higher proportions of bluer wavelengths, which can affect people’s nighttime patterns. They disrupt our circadian rhythms, lower the performance of our immune systems and increase the occurrence of certain diseases, including cancer.

Nothing beats lighting candles and sitting around in the dark. Very soothing.

Hate LED bulbs. Only give off a harsh, alien light. No LED bulbs with warm light.

2700k leds have the same light as an incandescent.

I think part of the problem is that people tend to use lights much more because the low wattage of leds. Lower wattage, cheaper to use.
