DAY 44
CHANGE THE BULBS
On average, a highly-used conventional incandescent bulb will cost you $7/yr--changing to a COMPACT FLORESCENT LIGHT bulb (CFLs) will cost about $1.50/yr!
Please BEGIN USING CFLs in place of conventional ones. By making the switch to CFL’s you are installing a bulb that will last ten-times longer and use 75% less energy than conventional bulbs.
Although CFL’s are a great way to save energy, make sure that you dispose of them as you would other HHW.
Challenge: CHANGE 5 bulbs in your home--most power companies will actually trade old bulbs for CFL's (for free)--call today!
