"Mr. Luna"
My students and I are working to give every child in America(PreK-12), just ONE Compact Fluorescent(CFL) bulb to plug in at home. This will help fight global warming by reducing carbon emissions from power plants, save the U.S. AT LEAST $2.3 BILLION in electricity costs, and help put America on the path to environmental sustainability. So far we've succeeded in giving every child in North Babylon one thanks to Home Depot!

I admire what you want to accomplish! Ü
This sounds like a really great idea..i hope you get far with this. Good luck! =)
this sounds great its nice that your trying to help a lot of people in a lot of different ways good luck!
What about getting major utility companies involved. Most have to allocate certain resources to energy conversation and certainly have lots of PR to do to justify some of their rate increases. Perhaps Oprah could help mobilize these companies. Check out their stock prices and I think we will find they can and should jump on board.
Why sit around waiting for Oprah?! This is a fantastic idea and worth jumping on! Hey Everyone:
Try calling the Lowes and Home Depots in your own areas to see if they'll discount huge purchases...like for your whole school district or maybe the entire town-hall...
At least go out and buy a six-pack of these bulbs for your own family! Have your children (all ages) get involved in changing the bulbs around the house and discuss WHY! This is a wonderful and simple family project too!
Go to the Girl and Boy scout troops and the science teachers in your public schools! Maybe they would want to spearhead a town-wide campaign!!
Thanks soooo much Mr. Luna! We're lucky to have heard of this and of you!!
Please help Mr. Luna with this great idea! We need more people like him that are willing to go out of the way to help our society! Randy Bos, Superintendent

Awesome idea!!! I hope u succeed!
Mr.Luna I think you have a brilliant idea. You have my full support in this and I think you should have no problem getting anyones support or help in this. I support you all the way Mr.Luna!
Message to everyone else if you support this please help and think of different ways for Mr.Luna to help save money to buy lightbulbs.
Between fundraisers, flourescent fudge, and spreading the idea i am helping all wthe way with this
we can make this work!
Saw this on Steve Spangler's blog--I live in the NW and Puget Sound Energy has rebated compact florescents for ~4 years. This last Christmas I put 7 bulbs in for a Women's houosing project that houses formerly homeless women. I think each of us could "sponsor" a small group and "spread the light". Thanks for your blog!
hey mr.luna! i told my friends about ur idea nd my mom already replaced all the lightbulbs at my house with flouresant bulbs.
GOOD LUCK!!
