Good idea to use low energy lamps to save money. But that will not make the least difference to the environment.
With the amount of coal the US burns to generate electricity it absolutely helps the environment here. There's no such thing as "clean coal" BTW, Mr McCain.
I am trying to ease my mother into them...they are making some good ones now that use daylight spectrum.
Didn't I read somewhere there is a problem with disposing of these types of lamps? Save energy and pollute the environment?
I am thinking the same thing?
My spouse has a controled Glacoma (sp?) and is
not able to see very well with these bulbs. I
imagine that she is not the only one, so why
would you use something that renders parts of
your home "dark" to them
Considering they contain mercury that is a heavy metal and are to be disposed of in certain fashion - NO.
