摘要

EVER increasing day and night movement activities of mankind irrespective to their urban or rural base greatly need street lighting for their safe night movements all around. Electricity based street lighting facilities are an integral part of urban town planning but rural sector is of least concern in this respect. Presently, solar based street lighting systems are though providing some relief to rural masses but with their inherited disadvantages like cost & maintenance. Nanotechnology has shown the way to make trees glow making use of bioluminescence phenomenon when their leaves are implanted with nanoparticles to play the role of street lighting system.
