Low wattage light globes
I know I know these have been around forever – but have you installed them in your home yet? If you haven’t you should be ashamed.
They are a really simple way to really reduce your energy usage, yes they do cost a bit more than a regular globe but really not that much more. They only use about 1/5 of the energy for the same light out put and they will last 10 times longer. So they will pay for themselves many times over.
I just picked some up two for under $9 so there really is no excuse for you not to grab at least a couple of them. You may not be able to afford to put them into every socket in your house. So just start in the areas in which you use the most light, these will be your kitchen and your living areas. This will give you the quickest return on your money and save the most greenhouse gases.
If you have down lights, I have some good news there are now down light low wattage lights available in some areas.
Ok that’s it for today
