What makes me giggle. They last years. So you have a house full of ancient bulbs, which by the time they warm up, you're switching the light off again. Also causes domestics as men **** all over the bathroom floor. So you rush out and buy a whole new set - and put the old ones in a landfill site. And no doubt you'll have to do the same again in a few years when something even better comes along. It's like all energy saving - just shifts the energy consumption/planet damage somewhere else. And it's not as if any of us will be here when the planet's chuffed.
