Lighting
A simple improvement every household can see
Switching from standard incandescent light bulbs to ENERGY STAR® qualified energy-efficient light bulbs is the easiest and most affordable step you can take to use less energy, reduce your electricity costs and protect the environment. ENERGY STAR qualified energy-efficient light bulbs are longer-lasting, brighter and much more efficient than lighting of the past. In fact, if every home in America replaced just one incandescent light bulb with an ENERGY STAR qualified energy-efficient light bulb, such as a CFL or LED, it would save enough energy to light more than three million homes and prevent greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to those of more than 800,000 cars annually.
