It is no surprise that the environment is rapidly shifting and our planet earth continues to go through changes we can’t always explain. Not doing anything to help the problem will not benefit anyone or anything, but individually we can all play our part to slow down the damage. Many experts say that these changes are natural but some say that a great deal of it was introduced to us by humans through many years of contamination and negligence. Many are unaware of what they can do to help prevent further damage so below are some tips and reasons for switching over to eco-friendly lighting. Businesses large and small can get involved in helping the atmosphere by applying some of the easy to follow tips that will cut energy use dramatically.
• An eco-friendly lighting solution often times is extremely efficient requiring much less power to in fact function. Energy efficient lighting can last up to 24 times longer than some incandescent light bulbs.
• Even though initially energy efficient lighting can sometimes be a bit more of an investment, you can really see the savings in your monthly power bill. Energy efficient bulbs can often times use 1/3 the power that out-dated/inefficient bulbs need to maintain utmost power.
• Energy efficient bulbs reduce air and water pollution by releasing far less CO2 into the atmosphere over the life of a bulb. This would aid greatly against global warming now that our planet is focused on switching to energy efficient lighting.
• Energy efficient lighting also offers a much more pleasing and warm light. Energy efficient lighting almost never generates any of the flickering or humming that often times occurs with outdated light bulbs.
• Energy efficient bulbs come in many different shapes and sizes so the ability to apply them in your business is very easy, leaving business owners without any excuses.
Energy efficient lighting comes with many different rewards. If a business is looking to cut expenses long term, these are extra steps which can be taken at the workplace. These efforts coupled with energy efficient lighting can help in significantly reducing monthly energy overheads.
• Applying occupancy sensors in rooms that are not occupied will allow for lights to robotically shut off for a specific extent of time the room is unoccupied.
• Taking advantage of daylight where appropriate using windows for much desirable light can further reduce the amount of energy needed to successful continue working.
• Applying dimmer switches to rooms that do not require 100% lighting will help control the amount of energy used and allow for energy reduction.
• Using task lighting in cubicles and offices which attach underneath work areas and stations to provide lighting in very specific areas.
• For any business which uses gas lamps outdoors, by turning off such lighting when the store or business is not open will save a great deal of natural gas, enough to heat a small home.
