I worked at a hotel for a while and while working there, we made the switch to mostly cfls in the rooms.
For the most part they were well received, but they do provide a different type of light. I actually think I prefer it, but some of the guests complained about it.
It is amazing how big of an impact switching to those types of lights could have if it were adopted all over.
I just looked and it seems like Congress passed a bill in 2007 that mandates the switch to cfls by 2014.
How fun! I love reading about the little things I can do to save energy. I currently have done 3/5 of the list. I just need to plant some hedges now and I am in good shape. Check out these recycled light bulb fixtures that I found.
