Would you like to lighten the load on Mother Earth? Would you like to lighten the load on Mother Earth? Use compact fluorescent lights (CFLs) for your home and dispose of them properly. CFLs help conserve natural resources like coal and gas by using up to 75% less electricity than common incandescent bulbs. CFLs last longer, too. Unfortunately, some good things do end and your CFL will eventually burn out. Because CFLs contain a small amount of mercury and electronic components, the US Environmental Protection Agency recommends that the lamps be properly recycled. We have an easy way for you to do this. We now offer CFL recycling at our utility office. Bring in your burned out CFL and we will dispose of it in an environmentally friendly way. |
