See why energy efficient CFL bulbs are beneficial to our environment!
• If every American home replaced just one light bulb with an ENERGY
STAR, we would save enough energy to light more than 2.5 million homes
for a year and prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions of
nearly 800,000 cars.
•
If every American home changed out just (5) five high-use light
fixtures or the bulbs in them with ones that have earned the ENERGY
STAR, each family would save about $60 every year in energy costs, and
together we'd save about $6.5 billion each year in energy costs and
prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions from more than 8
million cars*
• When you replace light bulbs in your home with
ones that have earned the government's ENERGY STAR, you help preserve
energy resources and reduce the risks of global warming while saving
money and time buying and changing lights in your home.*
•
Compact Fluorescent light bulbs use at least 2/3 less energy than
standard lighting, generate 70 percent less heat, and last up to 10
times longer.
• By simply replacing a 60w incandescent bulb you can save at least $30 in energy costs over the life of the bulb.
•
By replacing four standard bulbs with CFLs, you can prevent the
emission of 5,000 pounds of carbon dioxide and reduce your electricity
bill by more than $100 over the lives of those bulbs.**
• If
every household in the U.S. replaced one light bulb with a CFL, it
would prevent enough pollution to equal removing one million cars from
the road.**
It won’t be long before standard
incandescent light bulbs are obsolete. Well guess what? We see that day
coming and we want to be your source for the lowest cost Compact
Fluorescent light bulbs on the Web!
