Abstract: Survey and analysis were carried out for awareness of light pollution in Shenyang from 464 valid questionnaires collected. The results show that residents aware of light pollution are less than 10%, and up to 20% residents do not know concept of light pollution at all. Though 90% residents think that light pollution has severely affected their sleep quality, the majority (about 639%) choose to endure instead of coping with it by the law, indicating low light pollution awareness of the residents.

Key words: awareness of light pollution, questionnaire survey, evaluation index system, LED(light emitting diode), reflection glass curtain wall, Shenyang
