Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs (CFL’s) are a green alternative to traditional, incandescent light bulbs. CFL’s produce light differently than incandescent bulbs and pay for themselves in about 6 months. CFL’s are more energy efficient because they use 75% less energy and last about 10 times longer than incandescent light bulbs.
