With only one Earth, the practice of sustainable lighting is essential for all of us. Considerations of environmental impact, circular economy, life cycles, human wellness, carbon impact, material transparency, community impact, and equitable accessibility have grown over the past decade as research builds around new and developing technologies. The IES works toward more sustainable practices through groups like the Sustainable Lighting Committee, standards like ANSI/IES LP-10-20 “Sustainable Lighting – An Introduction to the Environmental Impacts of Lighting,” and more.

- Longer Lifespan in Sustainable Lighting - LED lights and other sustainable lighting options offer significantly longer lifespans compared to conventional bulbs. This extended longevity results in fewer replacements, reducing waste and maintenance costs. By opting for sustainable lighting, we contribute to a more sustainable environment through decreased resource consumption and minimized landfill impact. These durable lighting solutions not only enhance energy efficiency but also support eco-friendly practices. Furthermore, the reduced need for manufacturing new bulbs means lower carbon emissions associated with production and transportation. Sustainable lighting solutions, such as LEDs, provide consistent, high-quality illumination while being more durable and reliable. As a result, businesses and households can benefit from lower energy bills and fewer interruptions for replacements. Adopting sustainable lighting is a practical and responsible choice that aligns with environmental conservation efforts. By making this switch, we can ensure a brighter, more sustainable future for generations to come. #SustainableLighting #LongerLifespan #EcoFriendly #Sustainability #EnergyEfficiency

The global transition to energy-efficient lighting reflects a commitment to sustainability. LEDs, the backbone of this movement, continue to redefine how spaces are illuminated. LEDs lead the charge in sustainable lighting, combining long-term reliability with exceptional energy savings. Their mercury-free design ensures safer disposal, while their versatility makes them ideal for various applications. By adopting LED systems with smart controls, organizations demonstrate forward-thinking strategies that benefit both their bottom line and the planet.

Artificial lighting isn’t just aesthetically unappealing. Dependence on artificial lighting drives up operational costs and increases a development’s environmental impact. Increasing the level of daylight within the building reduces the need for artificial lighting while also creating a happier, healthier environment. Need guidance on how to cut down on artificial lighting in your development? Planning For Sustainability is here to help you. https://lnkd.in/e6Xh5gVA #PlanningForSustainability #ClimateChangeAdaptation #Sustainability

Any idea what’s the best environmental mark? Lighting brands are signing up to a bewildering array of environmental marks, including B Corp, EcoVadis, Planet Mark, Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute and good old ISO14001. But which is best for genuinely assessing your sustainability? And which programmes resonate with customers and specifiers? These are the questions that the Lighting Industry Association (The LIA) and Recolight have set out to answer in next month’s Net Zero Lighting 2024 conference. Speaker Bob Bohannon, head of policy and sustainability at the LIA, will compare and contrast all the popular environmental accreditations. The one-day event – hosted by the LIA and Recolight – takes place on Thursday 2 May in London and will explore the practical steps that they can take to reduce the carbon emissions of all parts of their operations, The one-day conference and exhibition will bring together a range of experts from both the lighting industry and other sectors to advise on best practice in the journey to ‘net zero’. How can manufacturers tackle the responsibility of the carbon footprint they generate while making luminaires? What measures can help them reduce their impact on the climate? What are the priorities, the ‘quick wins’ and real challenges? How can we cut carbon, energy use and waste without compromising quality or customer service? These are some of the questions that the organisers are promising to answer. • Read more: Link in the comments • The Circular Lighting Report is powered by Recolight
