Global Warming: incandescent light bulbs

Source: Static Noise
The Global Warming crowd is going into overdrive right about now. They know that bloom is soon to fall off the rose. They sense that their window to infect as many gullible people with the “fever” is going to close. There is a push to get legislation passed, corporations shamed, and politicians of all stripes on the bandwagon. However, the very things that are going to save the world are going to kill the movement. Take the push to ban regular incandescent light bulbs. The compact fluorescent bulbs that are the so called answer to reducing your carbon footprint contain significant amount of dangerous mercury and will require a Superfund designation should you accidentally drop one on your floor. These things should not be tossed out cavalierly lest we pollute the ground water near the landfill. The other consideration is that the U.S. does not manufacture these bulbs - they are made only in China. What a nice jobs program for China. [more]
