There are many environmental benefits to be gained from switching to LED light bulbs. A wide range of LED light bulbs are now available – from strip light LED light bulbs to MR16 LED light bulbs for kitchen spot lights – there is an LED bulb for you.
Less electricity consumed
Throughout the life of an LED bulb, it uses less electricity. This means less CO2 is produced to light the bulb.
No hazardous chemicals
Fluorescent bulbs contain a variety of greenhouse gasses and mercury vapour. This means they require specialised disposal processes. Of course, if a fluorescent bulb is broken, these harmful gasses escape into the atmosphere.
Fewer resources used
As LED light bulbs last much longer than incandescent and halogen bulbs, fewer energy and material resources are used over the life span of the LED bulb.
By switching to LED light bulbs you will be saving yourself money, and reducing your impact on our planet’s environment.
