[FOCUS] Lights And Circadian Rhythm

CarbonSessions

Episode Summary: This segment is from a longer episode in which Kristina shares with Jenn, Leekei and Brian some insights about how lights influence our circadian rhythm and nature in general

Lights are everywhere, yet we don’t often discuss their impact on humans, society, and both the natural and built environments.

In the full conversation, we discuss:

• The differences between natural and artificial lights.
• The influence of light on our circadian rhythms.
• How to use and position appropriate lighting in various settings.
• How lights can affect trees, birds, and insects.
