Climate change, energy saving light bulbs and the Daily Mail
Modern fluorescent lamp was first conceived by Peter Cooper Hewitt in late 1890 and were initially used for large industrial buildings and photographic studios.
This technology was later applied in the first practice commercial compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL) designed by George Inman and the General Electric Company. Although this development was designed for more than 70 years was the forerunner of the modern CFL invented by Ed Hammer and GE in response to the 1973 oil crisis. While the success of design, the invention is not intended by the expensive cost of production and investment potential. The design was subsequently leaked and copied by other leading manufacturers leading to an increase gradual in the use and continuous improvement.
Due to the rising cost of electricity in the UK and U.S. many homes and businesses, eager to cut costs, not have changed the lighting of the CFL bulbs, as they are on average 10 times more efficient. CFL also help reduce carbon emissions leading to elimination Progressive provided by the EU to ensure incandescent bulbs are no longer available for 2011. Despite the potential cost savings cattle remains critical CFL bulbs to energy saving in the popular press. Much of this criticism is popular myths associated with "energy saving" years ago have been eliminated by the manufacturers.
With headlines such as "Environmentally friendly light bulbs' can cause skin cancer''(2008) and 'Rebellion! Denied the right to buy traditional bulbs "(2009) The Daily Mail is leading the campaign against energy-saving bulbs. These reports have been criticized by the government and the Association of enlightenment as "irresponsible stories" scare to sell newspapers, and last year the trust energy saving was about to turn the audience through the introduction of the "Pepsi Challenge '. This survey, to study the reactions of people energy saving bulbs, allowed people to enter in two different rooms, one lit by energy saving and the other for traditional bulbs. The study found that half the people could not tell the difference and also 2 of 3 people preferred the small energy savings.
Concern by the mercury content of energy-saving light bulbs have also been one of the documents "Topics buzz. CFL Realistically however, most use modern amalgam, a mercury substitute is completely safe to handle, transport and store and poses no direct risk to humans or the environment. Other bulbs use recycled mercury and its price includes a charge of making recycling more environmentally friendly than incandescent bulbs.
With climate change a constant threat to our way of life, it is irresponsible of the Daily Mail to make war against the energy savings products? The newspaper reported almost continuously during the first years of recession 'money saving tips. There's promotion earlier this year to distribute a 100W bulb free to all readers has been criticized by some environmental groups as "suicide climate."
The paper tends to use outdated views of CFLs to convince their Readers who are being monitored to buy something they do not want. But is not it true that in many aspects of our advanced capitalist society? In fact, it was a means British newspaper media is guilty of "breaking out" the smaller niche newspapers to create greater market share (and election limited consumer).
When news of paper is increasingly obsolete, newspapers have more tricks and shocking news to change units, the result is more questionable facts and more extravagant claims. I encourage anyone to seek a balanced view on the subject, and I am sure that the cost energy and reduce carbon emissions is a good thing. I encourage you to take a look at greenhouse Organization if you need saving light bulbs consumption.
