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

It's all about perception though, people feel safer in well lit
environments. I've just had a similar argument with the wife over having
movement triggered floodlights installed on our outbuildings, I think it
would have helped the thieving gits that nicked all our machinery, not
hindered them.
Is there evidence on safety (or criminal activity) vs light levels?

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.
NO.
Or to expand on that, how does a bit of light make a place safer?. Answer,
it doesn't. The mugger can now see you and he or she can see to get there
first.
Even if you use a jar full of glow-worms.
