Energy Star: Change A Light, Change Your Life




Starting this Earth Day, April 22nd, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will ask consumers to do a little bit more than “change a light” to fight global warming, when it launches the year-long “Change the World: Start with ENERGY STAR” campaign. The campaign’s cornerstone will be the new ENERGY STAR Pledge, which also launches on Earth Day at www.energystar.gov.

So far, the successful ENERGY STAR Change a Light campaign has inspired more than a million Americans to pledge to switch to energy-efficient CFLs and helped boost market share for CFLs to over 20% nationally. Check out the website to see how your state is doing in the pledge to collectively convert from energy sucking light bulbs to energy saving compact fluorescent light bulbs.
