DO ENERGY SAVING LIGHTBULBS TAKE MORE ENERGY TO MANUFACTURE?
Oct 13th
Question by Jay Arthur:
Do energy saving lightbulbs take more energy to manufacture?
I heard that the production of an energy saving lightbulb takes up more energy / resources than when making a conventional bulb. I just wondered if this was true.

DOES REMOVING LIGHTBULBS SAVE ENERGY?
Feb 2nd
When I turn on the lightswitch in my bedroom, three lightbulbs light up.
If I remove one of them, would I be saving energy?
I think that if I take one out, I would still be using the same amount of energy, but the only change would be a dimmer room.
Correct me if I am wrong.
