Abstract
Unscrupulous outdoor lighting produces a number of effects that are currently included under the term light pollution. Its consequences (e.g. loss of resources by energy waste), are being recognized for some time, as well as the possibility to mitigate this pollution. In the present work, we present some lines of action developed at the Facultad Regional San Nicol\'as of National Technological University (UTN) of Argentina to include the CL as a regular topic of study in the problems of air pollution.
