- 9. • LED lights are non-toxic and recyclable.
• Fluorescent lamps contain mercury
– Mercury is highly-reactive, toxic heavy metal when inhaled or
highly reactive
ingested can cause damages to central nervous system, brain,
kidney, reproductive systems and even lead to death.
– Fluorescent lamp need to be disposed properly as hazardous waste.
– Compact fluorescent light bulb contain 3 to 5 mg mercury.
– Fluorescent tube light (4 foot long) contain 12 mg mercury
(4-foot mercury.

- 10. • Longer operation:
– LED light bulb: Average 35 000 to 50 000 operating hours
35,000 50,000
– Incandescent light bulb: Average 1,000 operating hours
– Fluorescent light: Average 10,000 operating hours
g g g
• Reduce waste with longer operation:
– 1 LED light bulb last 35 times longer than incandescent and 3.5
times longer than fluorescent – Less LED light bulbs in landfill!
