Energy saving bulbs
Policy & Resources today approved the replacement of all incandescent bulbs with fluorescent ones in a gradual process over the coming years.
Does that mean that you'll send me a dozen energy saving bulbs? Whilst on one of my many trips to the mainland recently ( carbon footprint must be a size 12 ) I bought 8 energy saving bulbs, for about a tenner ( give or take a pound or two either way) and notice that the same or similar bulbs in the Co-op are £6.94, I think. How? Why? What's going on? I'm very confused by all this, I want to " save the planet" and cut my energy bills, but I'm not paying the prices in the Co-op. Cheery Tws.
