Does that mean that they all compost 100% of their compostable waste including all their kitchen waste? Did you know that when this kind of waste goes to the landfill, not only do trucks have to burn fosil fules to drive their waste to the landfill, the waste breaks down in the abscence of oxygen. This is what is called Anaerobic Composting. It produces noxious greenhouse gasses. If people really believe in man-made global warming then they would compost their kitchen scraps. Wouldn't they?And they would walk to the farmer's market or neighborhood urban farm to buy their food instead of driving the fosil fule mobiel to the grocery store with all those electric lights powered by power plants filled with food grown and produced up to five-thousand miles away and shipped into town in big gas guzzling trucks. Maybe they would plant a garden, make their own food without fosil fules of any kind and feed the little old laddy down the street and the kids next door who only eat the degraded food that WIC affords them.When you get your hands dirty and grow your own food you do the most revolutionary thing anyone can imagine: change your self.

Do CFL's really use less energy than traditional lightbulbs. I think that the real savings occurs in applications where lights are left on all the time in certain commercial and industrial applications. CFL's are heavily subsidized. How much would they cost if we had to purchase them without the subsidies? How much energy do they waste in production and transportation from China to the United States? Wouldn't a light source that was local use less energy? What is the total life-cycle cost of CFL's compared to "traditional" bulbs? I have a question about lightbulbs.

For example, I paid 15$ a bulb for very long lasting outdoor track light where I had to hire a maintenance guy to put them at the top of a third story building. The new bulbs were supposed to last for years. They blew out in 6 months of only part-time nighttime use.Furthermore, they put out poor light. I simply do not like the new bulbs. I hate to wait for them to give off light slowly as they warm up (at least some of the new bulbs act that way).I far prefer the incandescent bulbs. Why should I have to give up a product to help lower global temperature, when 1.) I do not think there is global warming. 2.) I wish there was global warming because plants grow better when there is warm weather (check out the equator) 3.) it will not bother me one little bit if people living along the oceans have to move their cities inland as it would make jobs 4.) I am absolutely sick of being told what to do by wacko socialistic/environmentalists. The new light bulbs do not last as long as touted.

The color is very nice and I've already seen a difference in my energy costs since I switched over. I found really great prices at Earthled.com. I love my LED’s.
