Facts about CFL

Most of us have heard about CFL (Compact Florescent Lamp). But most of us don’t know the relationship between bulbs and Carbon dioxide. The bulbs not only consume more electricity but they produce more Carbon dioxide and heat, which causes harm to our environment and increase global warming. Heat produced by an ordinary bulb wastes 90% electricity.

When we use CFL Tubes instead of an ordinary bulb, then not only we save on our electricity bills, but decreasing global warming and also giving better environment to our next generation. The light produced by CFL is also pleasing. According to an estimate, in one year an 11-Watt CFL can save 20 Kgs of Carbon dioxides. A 15-Watt bulb consumes 1.5 unit of electricity, but a 15-Watt CFL consumes only ½ unit in a day. In villages, people don’t know the use of CFL and mostly use bulbs. According to them, the CFL is costly. They are right, but CFL is better option for bulbs. CFL saves electricity and its life is longer than bulb. I think the Government should take initiative in this regard, for reducing the price of CFL and spread the message among public for use of CFL instead of bulbs.

Though, it should be the duty of every citizen to save our precious environment, little efforts by everyone in this regard could save a lot. I hope you will use CFL in your home instead of bulbs and also tell all this to your children, friends and family. At last Earth is Ours, we have to protect it from any danger. I also hope if you will do this you will get a different feeling.
