Going green is helpful in that it teaches us to not waste. Monetarily, really. However, there's no evidence to suggest humans are alternating the Earth's global climate patterns. (Anyone heard of the "little ice age"? I don't think that was the Earth telling us to pollute.) Just something to keep in mind - this might not actually benefit anything other than bank accounts. Like I said, though, it's fiscally responsible. Sounds like a good working definition to me.

]]> Comment on Staples CFO says Going Green Means Saving Green by Irene Sinteff http://www.goinggreenhints.com/staples-cfo-says-going-green-means-saving-green/#comment-258 Irene Sinteff Mon, 24 May 2010 07:16:52 +0000 http://www.goinggreenhints.com/?p=43#comment-258 A single kilowatt-hour of electricity will generate 1.34 pounds (610 g) of CO2 emissions. Assuming the average light bulb is on for 10 hours a day, a single 40-watt incandescent bulb will generate 196 pounds (89 kg) of CO2 every year. The 13-watt LED equivalent will only be responsible for 63 pounds (29 kg) of CO2 over the same time span. A building’s carbon footprint from lighting can be reduced by 68% by exchanging all incandescent bulbs for new LEDs in warm climates. In cold climates, the energy saving may be lower, since more heating would be needed to compensate for the lower temperature.

Tell you what, we have tried to turn off the all the electric juice sucking machines, but not really see much of the difference in the bills. But, one day our plaza electrician told me that they are changing all the LED light tubes outside the plaza. Those LED lights look the same as the old light tube but after that we don’t think we see the electrician for months until people complaint about other problems. We tried using the LED light tubes and we are so damn glad we did. We already have the electric bill saving to pay off the LED lights that we got. Awesome product!!!
