Switch Your Light Bulb
If you’re wondering what that swirly light bulb is that you’ve been seeing everywhere lately, it’s just the greatest thing to happen to household lighting since Edison. The CFL or Compact Fluorescent Light Bulb uses 75% less energy than standard incandescent bulbs and lasts up to 10 times longer. If every home in America replaced just one light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb, we would save enough energy to light more than 3 million homes for a year, more than $600 million in annual energy costs and prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions of more than 800,000 cars. So do your part for the environment, take a minute and switch at least one light bulb.
