How many politicians does it take to change all the lightbulbs in Europe?

Two years to change EU light bulbs

ORDINARY light bulbs are to be banned across the European Union within two years in the fight against climate change.

The 490 million citizens of the 27 member states will be expected to switch to energy-efficient bulbs after a summit of EU leaders yesterday told the European Commission to "rapidly submit proposals" to that effect.

Environmentalists said the change would save the public up to £5.4 billion a year in fuel bills and also about 20 million tonnes of carbon emissions every year.

The energy that would be saved in the UK is equivalent to one medium-sized power station.

The announcement came as EU leaders agreed to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 20 per cent by 2020 compared with 1990 levels and pledged to increase this to 30 per cent if other developed countries followed suit.

Greenpeace hailed the summit deal as "the biggest such decision since the adoption of the Kyoto Protocol".

Ok! now, Canada? US?

I want to invest in that new lightbulb company.
