Trade old-school light bulbs for CFLs at Bellingham Lowes this weekend!
Are you still making spending 90 cents of every lighting dollar creating heat instead of light? If you’re using incandenscent bulbs then that’s EXACTLY what you’re doing! It’s a fact: 90% of the electricity used to “light” a Thomas Edison-style light bulb is wasted creating heat. It’s a crime and a shame.
But this weekend you have the option of changing that with a quick trip to Bellingham Lowes, located at 1050 East Sunset Dr.
FREE BULB EXCHANGE!!!
The event is called “Rock the Bulb” and is presented by Puget Sound Energy (PSE). On Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., you can trade out up to 10 incandescent bulbs for 75%-more-energy-saving, 10X-longer-lasting CFL bulbs.
You have to be a PSE customer to participate, and they’re encouraging people to bring a PSE bill for faster processing. They’re also offering snacks and games, and have a drawing to win part of over $45,000 in prizes.
Events like this are your basic “awareness campaigns” and go a long way to help educate the public about how EASY it is to reduce energy consumption, and therefore global warming. It’s easy-peasy stuff, but it really works! Click HERE to read more tips on how to be an “Energy Super Hero!”
