This document discusses ways to make lighting more energy efficient and environmentally friendly. It notes that LED lights consume less energy than traditional lights, do not contain mercury, and have a longer lifespan, reducing operating costs. Electronic ballasts and starters can further reduce energy consumption from lights by 30% while maintaining brightness. Making the switch to more efficient lighting technologies can save up to 25% on electricity costs and help reduce greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. The document also discusses the environmental and economic benefits of recycling paper, aluminum, and glass to conserve natural resources for future generations.
