"Turn off the light when you leave a room." has always struck me as very misguided. You probably should still do that to save on your electricity bill. But I am a night owl and I like going outside to bike or walk. The number of businesses I walk or bike past that leave their lights on all night is just ridiculous.
Where I live they usually have little hook things outside to turn on/off these lights that you're supposed to reach with some perch you keep inside. When I was younger, jumping and climbing to reach these and turn off all the useless business lights in an entire street was great fun when walking back from the bar with friends
There's a massive shopping centre in Norway (Kvadrat in Sandnes) where the main outdoor lights was (not sure now, haven't been there for 6 years) a light switch you could reach!
