Dept of Water & Power in Los Angeles is giving away 2 CFLs to every household door to door.

LADWP Compact Fluorescent Light Bulb Distribution:

The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) is pleased to launch its city-wide distribution of energy-saving compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs). LADWP representatives will be out distributing two energy saving bulbs, along with other energy saving materials to all of our residential customers. The door-to-door deliveries will take several months, but we will be reaching all of our residential customers.

These energy saving light bulbs can help you save up to $68.00 on your electrical use. If a customer installs the two bulbs, which we encourage each customer to do, in place of traditional incandescent light bulbs, a customer will save an estimated $34 for each bulb over the bulb’s life. So, don’t just place the CFLs in your utility drawer or cupboard, install them immediately and start saving energy and money.

CFLs offer many advantages over traditional incandescent bulbs. A CFL lasts for approximately 10,000 hours compared to 1,000 hours for an incandescent bulb. CFLs operate at a lower temperature and are less of a fire danger. CFLs help reduce your air conditioning use, as the lack of heat results in a cooler environment.

CFLs can reduce your energy use and can help make Los Angeles the biggest “green” city in the United States. When a customer installs and use CFLs, we are all helping to reduce global warming. Each bulb used reduces the burning of 400 pounds of coal in energy generation, and lowers the emission of CO2 and other greenhouse gases. We hope that each residential customer will use these bulbs and remember to use CFLs each time a light bulb needs to be replaced.

Providing these energy saving bulbs is just one way that the LADWP wants to help its customers become more energy and water efficient.

For questions or more information on the CFL distribution, please call (213) 367-4614 or email.

Why is the LADWP Distributing CFL light bulbs?

CFLs are one of the simplest and most effective energy saving tools available. A single efficient CFL bulb can reduce an annual electrical bill by $8 to $10. Two CFLs can save you approximately $85-$100 over five years.

CFLs are much more energy efficient because they do not use heat to produce light and as a result last longer. This makes them cooler to the touch and good to use in hard-to-reach applications. A CFL bulb will last 10,000 hours compared to 1,000 hours for a traditional bulb. CFLs use less energy and thus reduce energy demand, which helps to reduce power plant emissions of pollutant greenhouse gas

For the first time in history, people of all ages, nationalities, race and background have the opportunity to use their light switch as their vote – Switching off your lights is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. WWF are urging the world to VOTE EARTH and reach the target of 1 billion votes, which will be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009.

Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008 the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights. Global landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Rome’s Colosseum, the Sydney Opera House and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square all stood in darkness.

In 2009, Earth Hour is being taken to the next level, with the goal of 1 billion people switching off their lights as part of a global vote. Unlike any election in history, it is not about what country you’re from, but instead, what planet you’re from. VOTE EARTH is a global call to action for every individual, every business, and every community. A call to stand up and take control over the future of our planet. Over 74 countries and territories have pledged their support to VOTE EARTH during Earth Hour 2009, and this number is growing everyday.

We all have a vote, and every single vote counts. Together we can take control of the future of our planet, for future generations.

VOTE EARTH by simply switching off your lights for one hour, and join the world for Earth Hour.

Saturday, March 28, 8:30-9:30pm local time.
