Amazon Green Scene's Blog: Prepare for Daylight Savings with Amazon.com and ENERGY STAR® Permalink: "R qualified lights, including fixtures, ceiling fans and compact fluorescent bulbs (called CFLs), all meet strict energy efficiency criteria without sacrificing performance. And now, more than ever before, ENERGY STAR fixtures, table lamps, wall and ceiling fixtures, under cabinet, recessed and even outdoor lighting, come in a number of new, decorative styles to match any decor.

ENERGY STAR qualified CFLs produce the same bright light as incandescent bulbs, but use 75% less energy, last up to 10 times longer and only need to be changed about once every 7 years. ENERGY STAR qualified fixtures and bulbs both provide a true and natural color without the flicker, hum, or buzz of their infamous fluorescent predecessors. Convenient features include quick-start, no-hum indoor models, indoor models with dimming or switching capabilities, and automatic daylight shut-off and motion sensors on outdoor models.

Remember that by using less energy, ENERGY STAR products not only save you money but also help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions—caused by the burning of fossil fuels at power plants—that contribute to global warming. So prepare for the end of daylight"
