I read this blurb in my Parenting magazine.
"Change a lightbulb: If every household replaced its five most frequently used lights with Energy Star bulbs, it would have the same effect on reducing greenhouse gases as if we took 8 million cars off the road. Bonus: You'd save about $60 a year."
Sounds great to me! So simple yet such a huge impact.
My brother tried to complain about it by saying "I don't like those flourescent bulbs...I don't know if I could handle it," and I rebuttled, "you'd rather have 8 million cars on the road polluting than suck it up and use flourescent lighting?" He had no reply.
