"Given the number of undernourished people in the developing world and the increasingly complex risks to food security, policymakers are faced with an enormous agenda. Freeing people from hunger will require more and better-targeted investments, innovations, and policy actions, driven by a keen understanding of the dynamic risks and forces that shape the factors affecting people’s access to food and the links with nutrition.
In public buildings lighting accounts for about 40% of the electricity costs. If you multiply this figure by the number of kindergartens, schools and universities, town halls, local government buildings and government departments, libraries, swimming pools and hospitals, then the total is enormous. Lighting in public buildings is currently consuming far more energy than necessary, with all the negative side-effects such as high running costs, electricity bottlenecks and damage to the climate. That can easily be changed.
The true cost of cheap products: The city hall employees had put up with poor lighting at their workplace for far too long: gloomy corridors, flickering fluorescent lamps, and no emergency lighting or outdoor lighting. And the monthly electricity bills were enormous. Finally, it was decided that the building has to be renovated. A lighting expert analysed the status quo, produced a new lighting strategy, and drew up a plan to implement this.
Recent trends in food prices—higher levels and higher volatility—mirror trends predicted by a number of experts. Given the complex web of factors influencing global food security, governments of developed and developing countries, as well as international organizations, must use a comprehensive approach to prevent a food crisis reoccurrence.

The illuminated emergency exit sign (1) within a building has a display panel (10) of different colors (17-19) to indicate the escape route to the emergency exit with white light from at least two LEDs (21-2631-36) along at least one edge of the panel. The exit sign is operated by a control circuit (40) with a smoke detector (43) and a control (50) to give a flashing light effect. -

The City Development Plan of Indore states that “increasing population pressure is resulting in deterioration of infrastructure facilities, loss of productive agricultural lands, green open spaces, loss of surface water bodies, depletion of groundwater aquifer zones, air pollution, water contamination, health hazards and many micro-climatic changes.” The main objective of this TARU Leading Edge project is “Ensuring availability of local water resources during emergencies.” This would be achieved by developing replicable model for peri-urban lake rejuvenation and conservation.
