Even Brighter Ideas to Save Energy With Light Bulbs
Scientists are working towards innovative designs for lighting which could save energy and reduce carbon emissions.
Almost 20 per cent of all the energy produced in the world is used to power lights. So using energy saving bulbs could reduce the amount of energy we consume and also cut carbon dioxide emissions. Some experts say energy-saving bulbs do a much better job at providing light and more people are using them in their homes. Yet critics say these bulbs could work better and now researchers and companies are working on the next generation of improved energy-saving lights.
