Light pollution is an issue for two reasons, first of all, light from many streetlights and buildings is sent up into the night sky and that drowns out a great deal of stars and galaxies.

The second reason why it is an issue is because lights that are too bright can dazzle your eyes as a driver and unwanted light can enter someone's house, stopping them from sleeping.

Light pollution is bad because it obscures the night sky, which prevents astronomers from seeing very distant stars, and it can also disrupt someone's sleep cycles - as in a large city, city lights can easily enter someone's house.
