How can a tobacco company—which sells products that are harmful to the health of its consumers—talk in a credible way about sustainability? It’s a fair question.

Within the human body, each cell has a clock. There exists a direct link between a novel photosensitive cell in the retina and the region of the brain where the central clock is located, pinpointing light as the main input to reset and synchronize our clocks each day. Considering life on earth evolved with the predictable solar cycle, it makes sense that light would be our primary tool to synchronize these circadian
