Members of the public have been swapping their old incandescent lightbulbs for energy saving compact fluorescent bulbs, thanks to the environmental group Greenrock.
BELCO and HWP donated $30,000 to initiative which encourages people to exchange two regular incandescent lightbulbs for environmentally-friendly CFLs.
Greenrock is promoting the cost and energy savings of these light bulbs through a public awareness campaign.
The next bulb swaps will take place at the Victoria and Union Parking Lot (across from People’s Pharmacy) on Friday, February 22 from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. and at the City Market at Bull’s Head on Saturday, February 23 from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m.
