Shedding Light on the Incandescent Phase-OutCannonDesign
The document discusses the phase-out of traditional incandescent light bulbs in the United States as mandated by the 2007 Energy Independence and Security Act. It provides background on the legislation and explains that it aims to gradually increase energy efficiency in lighting by forcing innovation and improving lamp technology. While the public reaction has been largely negative, the phase-out helps reduce energy consumption and saves consumers money over the long run by pushing more efficient alternatives like LEDs and CFLs. The document considers some options for consumers dealing with the change, such as upgrading to high-efficiency incandescents, or switching to LEDs or CFLs, which use at least 70% less energy but may have higher upfront costs.

Identity theft is a growing crime worldwide that concerns everyone, but Will and Guy took a comedic approach to the topic by starring lookalike animals in their presentation.

2. METEOROLOXÍA
A meteoroloxía é
unha ciencia que
estuda os
fenómenos
atmosféricos
empregandos os
métodos da física,
a química, as
matemáticas...
3. A meteoroloxía moderna
permite establecer as
previsións da evolución do
tempo apoiándose en
modelos matemáticos a
curto e a longo prazo.
Tamén se utiliza para
predecir a calidade do aire
(polución, cantidade do pole
no aire...), os cambios
climáticos e para o estudo de
outras actividades humanas:
riscos naturais, construción,
tráfico aéreo, navegación...
