It contains 85% less mercury than a standard CFL, is instant-on, is dimmable, lasts 4x as long, and gives off a warm glow. I do agree that the mercury disposal or recycling centers should be setup. It would be a great initiative for Lowes or Home Depot - just like Staples and others do with battery recycling. Be well. Jason http://www.screamtobegreen.com Adam -

But that's where television and newspapers have to attack, trying to create conciousnes about how important our planet is if we want our children to see tomorrow...

We HAVE the international connections and media outlets to make real change happen. Now all people need to do is just spend that extra hour on something meaningful. Productivity courses teach frequently that spending 45 minutes a day adds up to an insane amount of extra productivity in the long run. Why not make that 45 minutes a day count and do some of the things listed above, rather than passively consume television. I think it IS a choice and if you have any interest in environmentalism, you know which one is for you. Thanks for another awesome post :) I really liked this post because I think it addresses the biggest problem facing modern environmentalism.

For example, your hosting company does not mention being green, or even carbon neutral. There are a lot of green or neutral hosting companies out there. When I moved my sites, I looked at only these groups of providers to chose from. Another choice you can make is about who you chose to do business with.
