News FLASH!


Piggy backing on an earlier post, here is the latest on the impending incandescent bulb ban.

The largest home furnishing store in the country, IKEA, is no longer stocking or selling incandescent bulbs in the US or Canada. Back in August of last year, IKEA announced they would have all incandescent bulbs out of their stores by this January.

So on January 4th of 2011, IKEA became the first retailer to pull ALL wattages (not just 100 watt) of the inefficient bulbs off their shelves to comply with the Energy Independence and Security Act, well ahead of the mandated dates.
