I wasn't worried about getting cut so I cleaned it with my bare hands immediately after it broke and just put it in the garbage. So much for waiting 15 mins, using rubber gloves, then vacuuming and putting that bag in a sealed plastic bag... Wish I had read this before my last CFL broke.

So what Ikea does is just compulsory. Regarding low-consumption lamps, this is funny: The Government taxes you whenever you buy one of them, because reclycling has a cost. Then you take it to the shop when it is fawlty, the shop has to comply and take it back, but they have nowhere to send them for recycling because there are no facilities of the kind! And since they are low-consumption, they are trying to make you buy them, to the extent that they are going to stop selling incandescent bulbs. But then you have to pay the taxes (which are useless) which makes the product more expensive. If it is "ecological", should the use of them not be promoted, say, making them cheaper because the Government pays part of it? Crazy, absolutely crazy...

Just think of the acumulative effects of those that don't know how or just don't clean up period.I don't think people should be trusted on this level. If we are truly concerned for our enviroment, we should take these kinds of risk for the sake of saving energy. Although I applaud attempts to save energy, I think the CFL bulbs

We now know the harm Mercury can do to us all after hearing about it's use in medicine we all took as kids. I wonder if the money you save using CFL Bulbs is worth the risk of getting Mercury in our blood streams. Can't they event something that won't hurt us???
