As part of a national effort to save energy and money, reduce reliance on foreign energy sources, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, Governor Ted Kulongoski recently urged Oregonians to participate in ENERGY STAR Change a Light, Change the World Day.
“Lighting accounts for nearly 20% of the electricity we use at home, and switching to energy-efficient lighting is an easy step we can each take that will make a difference in conserving energy, helping our environment, and saving money on energy bills.
