I would’ve expected a less sensationalist headline from Reuters, but I guess sensible people that actually have the balls to admit that we need to address the global warming issue are still being labelled treehuggers and faggots in collectively-stupid America*.
Personally, I think this is a great idea, and although it would be difficult to implement technically, you can at least get every single inefficient lightbulb in a public building changed, and stop the sale of them altogether.
* STANDARD DISCLAIMER: I don’t have a problem with America or Americans, in fact I love the premise it’s based on, I’ve liked most Americans I’ve met, and I’d really like to visit there. But seriously guys, on a collective level, do you want fries with that?
