Agencies to use non-certified personnel as a vehicle driver and a waiver can be obtained from the DOH. The Travis Alert bill (to address patients with autism) passed in 2017. The DOH and a stakeholder committee are working on developing education materials that are required in the Travis Alert bill. World Population Awareness is a non-profit web publication seeking to inform people about overpopulation, unsustainability, and overconsumption; the impacts, including depletion of natural resources, water, oil, soil, fertilizers, species loss, malnutrition, poverty, displacement of people, conflict; and what can be done about it: women's advancement, education, reproductive health care.

This book uses the metaphor “The economy is society's metabolism” as a springboard to develop a rigorous theoretical framework for a better system of national accounts which goes “Beyond GDP” and is relevant to the age of resource depletion. Society is entering a new era in which biophysical limits related to natural resource extraction rates and the biosphere's waste assimilation capacity are becoming binding constraints on mature economies. Unfortunately, the data needed for policy-makers to understand and manage economic growth in this new era are not universally available. All stakeholders need a new way to understand our economy in the context of the biosphere’s ability to provide essential natural capital, and we suggest that detailed information about materials, energy, embodied energy, and energy intensity should be routinely gathered, analyzed, and disseminated from a centralized location to provide markets and policymakers with a more comprehensive understanding of the biophysical economy. However, a firm theoretical foundation is needed before proceeding along this new path, which this book is intended to provide.
After arguing that the stock of manufactured capital is an important driver of material and energy demands imposed upon the biosphere, a new accounting framework is derived from the laws of thermodynamics to reflect the fact that material and embodied energy accumulate within the capital stock of economic sectors. This framework extends the Energy Input-Output (EI-O) techniques first developed by Bullard, Herendeen, and others to estimate energy intensity of economic products. Implications from the new framework are discussed, including the value of economic metrics for policy-making, the need for physically-based rather than product-based EI-O formulations, a re-assessment of the concept of economic “growth,” and an evaluation of recycling, reuse, and dematerialization. The framework also provides an opportunity to assess an array of definitions for Daly's “steady-state economy” in relation to the ideal of a sustainable economy.
The book ends with a list of steps to be taken in creating a more comprehensive system of national accounts:
- National accounting agencies worldwide should develop and maintain balance sheets of both natural and manufactured capital in addition to national income statements
- All stocks and inter-sector flows should be provided in physical as well as financial units
- In the US, the Bureau for Economic Analysis (BEA) should restart detailed Capital, Labor, Energy, Material, and Services (KLEMS) reporting
- National accounting agencies should routinely estimate the energy intensity of economic products, and all of the above should be estimated and disseminated on an annual basis.
IESSA has as a tenet in the advancement of lighting knowledge. To this end we offer a number of lighting courses from basics to intermediate as well as with those handling specific areas of lighting have been developed.
The Basic lighting Concepts, Vision, Lamps and Colour course is designed to provide persons associated with, or entering into the lighting industry with an understanding of basic lighting terminology and techniques.
The specialised courses are dedicated to various specific aspects of light and covers aspects such as road lighting and maintenance, shop and retail lighting, emergency lighting, and industrial lighting as well as the use of lighting tools such as the ‘Relux computer design program’. These courses range from 1 day to 2 days. The candidates to the courses are recognised with either certificates of attendance or certificates of accomplishment as appropriate.
