Pro: Compact fluorescent bulbs save money

Now, the incadescent bulb is being put under the spotlight as the Clean Energy Act of 2007 kicks in, requiring light bulbs to become more energy efficient. The 100 watt incandescent bulb will become a thing of the past, and incandescent bulbs using less wattage will have to become more efficient to be sold. Buyers will choose between newly designed energy-efficient incandescent light bulbs and halogen light bulbs. Meanwhile, the compact fluorescent light bulb is becoming more popular due to a more efficient way of using energy. President George Bush signed the Clean Energy Act, an act designed to promote energy independence.
