TREES: THE KEY TO CLIMATE PROOFING OUR CITIES- London, 10th July 2008.
A 10% increase in urban tree cover could neutralise rising city
temperatures, but large trees with irreplaceable climate-control benefits
are being lost at an alarming rate. This pioneering conference explores
practical possibilities to reverse tree loss within current planning
framework. It can be done: our objective is to define how to do it. FINAL

Clearly the circuit has to be safe, but could a low voltage scheme be
used with lightly armoured cables run through dark coloured conduits
pegged and hidden just under the litter layer with appropriate RCB / MCB
protection?

Though I'm not an electrician you understand.

Has anybody come ocross a scheme or technology that gives light but is
less
environmentally invasive but meets the safety demands of a public
site.

Any reason why the cabling can't be run overhead?  And put the
downlights on
the poles [ i.e. only one hole per 20 m]?
