MR LUNA'S BRIGHT IDEA
Ken Luna is an 8th grade science teacher in North Babylon, New York. His plan; To get Oprah to help him give every child in America(PreK-12), just ONE Compact Fluorescent(CFL) bulb to take home and plug into their favorite lamp. Helping to help fight global warming by reducing carbon emissions from electric power plants, saving Americans AT LEAST 2.3 BILLION dollars in electricity costs, and helping to put America on the path to environmental sustainability.
UPDATES -- The Bright Idea is burning brighter with a donation of 5500 CFL's from Home Depot, for local students. See the story. View the press release.

Editors note: The last sentence in our own FAQ sums-up the way we feel about energy awareness, sustainability and taking your first steps by switching to CFL's. That line is simply "Do it for the kids". Mr. Luna's plan is not only for the kids, but engages and educates students in its process, demonstrating sustainability and the way that one motivated person really can make a difference. That's a teacher -- and this is a "teachable moment". At CFLbulbs.com, we applaud Mr. Luna's spirit and encourage our users to assist in his quest to replace so many energy hogging bulbs with efficient compact fluorescents.
