Do you know CFL bulbs consume less energy and give same amout of volt lighting? CFL bulbs could cost little more than conventional bulbs but you save on your electricity bill.
It is not only great for the earth - it is also good for your pockets... Gals change your bulbs today.
I found this on Wikipedia
A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), also known as a compact fluorescent light bulb or energy saving light bulb (or less commonly as a compact fluorescent tube [CFT]), is a type of fluorescent lamp. Many CFLs are designed to replace an incandescent lamp and can fit in the existing light fixtures formerly used for incandescents.
Compared to general service incandescent lamps giving the same amount of visible light, CFLs use less power and have a longer rated life, but generally have a higher purchase price. In the United States, a CFL can save over US $30 in electricity costs over the lamp's lifetime compared to an incandescent lamp and save 2000 times its own weight in greenhouse gases.[2] Like all fluorescent lamps, CFLs contain mercury; this complicates the disposal of fluorescent lamps.
CFLs radiate a different light spectrum from that of incandescent lamps. Improved phosphor formulations have improved the subjective color of the light emitted by CFLs such that the best 'soft white' CFLs available in 2007 are subjectively similar in color to standard incandescent lamps.[3]
