Fluorescent Bulbs
Changing the world starts with simple actions. When you replace light
bulbs or entire light fixtures in your home with ones that have earned
the government’s ENERGY STAR, you help preserve energy resources and reduce
the risks of global warming while saving money and time buying and changing
lights in your home.
ENERGY STAR qualified lighting provides bright, warm light but uses about
75% less energy than standard lighting, produce 75 percent less heat, and
lasts up to 10 times longer.

To
save the most energy and money
Rreplace
your highest used fixtures or the light bulbs in them with
energy-efficient models. The five highest
use fixtures in a home are typically the kitchen ceiling
lights, the living or family room table and floor lamps, and outdoor
porch or
post lamp. ENERGY
STAR qualified lighting fixtures and replacement bulbs can
be found at home improvement and hardware stores, lighting
showrooms, and other retail
stores, including on-line outlets. Find a retailer in your
area with our Find a Store feature.
The
smallest things can add up to a real difference.
We encourage you
to change out the light fixtures or bulbs at home that you use most with
ENERGY STAR qualified models. If every American home replaced their 5 most
frequently used light fixtures or the bulbs in them with ones that have
earned the ENERGY STAR, we would save close to $8 billion each year in
energy costs, and together we would prevent the greenhouse gases equivalent
to the emissions from nearly 10 million cars.
FACT: The energy used in the average home can be responsible for more
than twice the greenhouse gas emissions of the average car. When you use
less energy at home, you reduce greenhouse gas emissions from power plants
and help protect our environment from the risks of global climate change.
