Improved Lighting Technology Supports Port Sustainability

摘要

Sustainability is the simple principle of being aware of a person or entity's impact through responsible use of resources. The American Association of Port Authorities (AAPA) recently implemented a task force to examine port sustainability issues, and it encourages ports to implement the concept of sustainability as part of standard business practices for both short and long-term planning. Under regulatory and community pressure, the nation's largest ports have adopted formal policies to enhance the environmental, social, and economic sustainability of their operations.
