Our first impression of a community is its visual environment, which is reflected from the pretty integration of the built and natural forms. Visual pollution is defined as the whole of irregular formations that are unattractive and affects people’s ability to enjoy or appreciate the view and vista. Anything that interferes with the “pretty scenes” and other distortion may become a cause of visual pollution. With the rapid increase of population world widebuilding sector became the major source of visual pollution especially in the city center.

Panelist: Thomas Lawrence, Ph.D., P.E., Fellow ASHRAE, LEED® AP Chair: Tony O’Keeffe, ASHRAE Ireland Vice-Chair CTTC 2021-2022 Date/Time: Friday, October 15th 2021 (1:00 – 2:00 PM BST)
The smart grid is developing and moving forward, buildings and the built environment will be interacting more closely with the electric utilities. The communication will be in both directions, with the utility working to balance the grid supply and demand through methods such as signalling requests for demand response measures, real-time price adjustments, etc. This is an evolving field and, while there are some differences in the need for and how a smart grid might function in the various regions of the world, there are some common factors as well. This seminar provides an overview of the smart grid particularly as it relates to buildings and their systems, and includes material and topics outlined in ASHRAE’s Smart Grid Application Guide.

Yes, there are universities that conduct research on tobacco crops. In fact, tobacco research has been conducted for decades, primarily by agricultural departments within universities. Some of the universities that conduct tobacco crop research include:
These universities have agricultural departments and research centers that focus on tobacco production, disease management, and product development. Some of the research conducted at these universities includes improving tobacco yields, developing new tobacco varieties, exploring alternative uses for tobacco, and investigating the health effects of tobacco use.
