    I will agree that 5000K (blue/white) really shouldn’t be used outside of few healthcare/industrial scenarios, but 4000/3500K (white) is a great color temp for outdoor lighting. 3000/2700K (yellow) doesn’t have the same punch and ends up resulting in more light pollution as you have to add more fixtures to achieve desired light levels. As for amber (I assume this is what you mean by red) that’s only really needed in coastal regions for wildlife purposes.
