CFLs shed old light on greenhouse-gas problem
Don Butler, Ottawa Citizen, October 15, 2008--Switching to more efficient compact fluorescent light bulbs would cut lighting energy demand by nearly 40 per cent and eliminate 900 million tonnes of greenhouse gases a year globally by 2030, according to a U.S. study.

One Change was honoured to be a part of the first annual Corporate Social Responsibility Conference on December 3rd.

One change doesn’t sound so small when 700,000 people do it.
That’s exactly what’s happened so far in Alberta this year. 700,000 households have accepted one of our CFLs, making one change that’s added up to something really big.

Crowsnest Pass is about to shine much brighter, thanks to Jenice Smith, Program Manager at the Crowsnest Conservation Society. The organization came on board with Project Porchlight this spring and has been busy handing out CFLs ever since.

Before arriving at my destination, I passed by Frank and the interpretive centre for the Frank Slide. According to the Web site for Alberta Tourism, Parks, Recreation and Culture, it was early morning of April 29, 1903 when 82 million tonnes (or 30 million cubic metres) of limestone fell on the town, killing about 70 of the town's estimated 600 people.
