Dr. Lettsome Writes About the Benefits of Energy Efficient Light Bulbs

Aug. 12, 2011 - PRLog -- We have all heard that Compact Florescent (CFL) and Light Emitting Diode (LED) bulbs are more green and energy efficient than the traditional Incandescent light bulb we have all grown up using, but can using these bulbs also promote the safety of all of America?  Many consumers have complaints about the price of this technology as well as the luminosity of the bulb or the warmth of the light, but the energy savings are so great that the government has passed a law to phase out the old incandescent bulbs starting in 2012 to be completely finished with incandescent bulbs by 2014. Dr. Clyde A. Lettsome, Ph.D., P.E., MEM, discusses this in his newest article entitled, Incandescent Bulbs or Long-term Safety?

“In a democratic society it is not a good idea for the government to tell citizens how they should live their lives as long as the pursuit of happiness does not encroach on the rights of others,” says Dr. Lettsome.”However there may be a few cases where government involvement for the good of the society may be necessary.”

Are we putting the safety of America at risk by continuing to use incandescent light bulbs? Read more Dr. Lettsome’s opinion about this great debate.
