If every household in America alone changed ONE bulb to a compact flourescent, the CO2 emissions savings is equal to 1 million cars being off the road. Every year. I picked mine up for $5.99 for 3. Plus a couple of specialty sizes for a bit more. Well worth it.

those flourescent bulbs rock.. ya, they're more expensive, BUT they last forever.. Put it this way, I bought 2 13 watt flourescent bulbs one year and a half ago and they still work as if they're brand new. Plus, While only using 26watts of power they produce the same lighting as 2 60watt bulbs. Only difference is the regular bulbs would have died long ago and cost me more in electricity.
