But ...I'm rather in favor of such prohibitions. But in general I estimate that most of the ecologic print belongs to the state (notably transport, military), industry, industrial farming and wealthy pricks' wasteful lives. <br /><br />Someone like me uses a small shared apartment (like 10 or 20 m² of actual soil), no car and just some basic electronic appliances. I could use some more, like for example a small orchard, but even with that I'd be always A LOT under the wasteful lifestyle of the 1%, never mind their business.Majuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369840391933337204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765307840677473617.post-18274102238602346872012-07-24T07:51:34.507-07:002012-07-24T07:51:34.507-07:00Why *forbid* incandescent bulbs?

If you do not keep it lit a long time a cheap bulb is the cheapest solution (in my place, the entrance and the corridor just after it, for example).<br />How about forbidding SUVs? or plane travel for tourism?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765307840677473617.post-74946660490452286082012-07-24T07:16:22.639-07:002012-07-24T07:16:22.639-07:00FYI.

As with everything, there are advantages and disadvantages to each type of technology. However, incandescent bulbs are highly inefficient at producing light, and hence the intense heat that's generated (which also carries risks as well). CFL must be used properly.<br /><br />Also, not all UV light is bad. Some of the UV light from the Sun is how people make Vitamin D in their bodies (hence, the Sun is good for health, and should not be avoided as conventional thinking goes). But not sure what kind of UV light is emitted by CFLs.<br /><br />CFL technology will be replaced by LED soon enough.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1765307840677473617.post-49311680528958492992012-07-23T21:49:53.212-07:002012-07-23T21:49:53.212-07:00In Germany (and i think all over Europe!) the clas...In Germany (and i think all over Europe!) the classic bulbs are phased out year by year because Osram and Philips paid the right politicians to make some "energy saving laws". Fortunately, LEDs are getting better every day and maybe this could turn out to be some kind of good starting impulse for really great led lights.
