- Howard Zinn

LED USES 90 PERCENT LESS ENERGY FOR THE SAME AMOUNT OF LIGHT THAN AN INCANDESCENT BULB AND HALF AS MUCH COMPARED TO A COMPACT FLUORESCENT

“BY SIMPLY REPLACING 1 BULB IN EVERY HOUSEHOLD WITH AN ENERGY STAR RATED LED LIGHT, WE COULD PREVENT GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS EQUIVALENT TO THAT OF 550,000 VEHICLES. IT MAY NOT HALT CLIMATE CHANGE, BUT IT’S A START.”
