Change a light bulb (or two or three) in your home from a regular bulb to a compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL).
Why, you ask? Well, now, that's a very good question. And here's your answer:
• Changing a light bulb makes a difference. If every US household replaced three 60-watt incandescent bulbs with CFLs, it would be like taking 3.5 million cars off the roads!
• CFLs save you money. A 20-watt CFL, which screws into an ordinary light socket, is just as bright as a 60-watt incandescent.
• Today's CFLs are dramatically better than a few years ago. You won't miss your incandescent bulbs.
