More on Light Bulbs


I know that the name of this blog seems a bit less than humble, and it was intended as a tongue-in-cheek kind of thing, but every once in a while, this little blog that could gets it right. We got it right on dark chocolate. Now we were the leading edge on light bulb. The first article was here

Now the great state of California may join Australia in some kind of ban on bulbs. This morning it was above the fold in the LA Times. Go figure. You can also read all about the details on a "green" website here. (Bet you never thought you'd see the day when I pointed you to a green website.)

And by the way, in case you don't read the entire LA Times article or go to the green website, one other interesting point is that the major bulb makers are working overtime to come up with a more efficient incandescent bulb. Will wonders never cease.

This is not the only way to become more efficient on energy while reducing carbon in the atmosphere without killing the worlds economies. See my list from a few days ago. Hopefully in a future column there will be more evidence that some of us lay people get it right from time-to-time.
