Every year, 106 billion pounds of preventable pollution is generated to power older-generation light bulbs. These incandescent bulbs use 4 times more energy than necessary to produce the light for your homes and businesses.

Little changes spread across large numbers can really make an impact, like for example, using compact fluorescent light bulbs, available at GreenLightsUSA.com. Use their handy little calculator and bulb planner to see how much of a difference you can make in your own home.

GreenLights is a for-profit company (they spin it as for-profit-doing-good). But 10% of their profits go to non-profit environmental organizations.
