Ban consumers from buying what they want and applaud the savings!

Edison’s simple safe light bulb is bought 19 times out of 20 in the USA.
The popularity is the reason to ban it: After all, that’s why the savings are supposed to be so great, no reason to ban what people don’t want.
Think about it!

About saving energy =
Does society need to save energy? No, no shortage of electric energy sources…

About what Obama also said, “saving lots of emissions banning bulbs” =
Does your light bulb give out any gases?
Since power stations might not give out any gases either, bans are unfair on emission-free energy households being able to use what they want, now or in the future, and emissions can be dealt with directly - as is planned anyway - by using new cleaner coal or renewable (or nuclear) energy.

ALL lights have advantages, that’s why they exist for people to choose:
It’s a pity that just complaints about “energy saving” saving lights are used against a ban,
those lights are useful too.

Why a ban is wrong:
For a list with references why a ban on ordinary light bulbs is wrong, see:

Thinking Positively Instead:
Dealing with emission problems themselves has advantages for all the sulphur etc in then -whatever about CO2
80% of emissions are from electricity and transport, and a focus on those sectors
alone is enough, as described on http://ceolas.net/#cc10x “A New Electric America”
