Politics

Lighting is currently a big political issue as well as a medical one. The current dominance of newer lighting technologies such as new fluorescent lighting and LED has been hastened by bans on traditional incandescent lighting in various parts of the world.

In this section LightAware has compiled information on the politics of lighting: the lighting bans themselves, the questions that have been asked and the health concerns raised across the various levels of Government and Government bodies.
