It is shock that the environment around us is rapidly changing and our planet is continuing to evolve and go through significant changes we can’t always quite explain. Waiting around and not doing anything about the situation will not benefit any of us but together we can all play our part to slow down the damages emerging by many man made issues cursing our planet right now. Scientists say that these changes are natural but others have a much different opinion about our climates changes. Many are unaware of what they can do to help stop or slow down further damage so below are some tips and reasons why making the shift over to eco-friendly lighting is important. Businesses of all sizes can get involved in helping the environment by applying some of these easy to follow tips that can cut energy use noticeably.
• Many times eco-friendly lighting is much more resourceful requiring less power to actually operate. Energy efficient lighting can last up to 24 times longer than most incandescent lighting.
• Even though at first energy efficient lighting can be a bit more costly, you can really see the savings in your monthly energy statement. Energy efficient bulbs can often times use 1/3 the power that out-dated/inefficient bulbs need to uphold maximum power.
• Energy efficient bulbs decrease air and water pollution by releasing much less CO2 into the atmosphere over the life span of a bulb. This would aid greatly in the fight against global warming now that our planet is determined on switching to energy efficient lighting solutions.
• Energy efficient lighting also offers a much more flattering and warm light. Energy efficient lighting hardly ever generates any of the flickering or humming that often times occurs with outdated light bulbs.
• Energy efficient bulbs come in many different styles and sizes so the ability to apply them in your business is extremely simple leaving business owners without any excuses.
Energy efficient lighting comes with many different advantages. If a business is looking to cut costs long term, these are additional steps which can be taken at the office. These efforts coupled with energy efficient lighting can help in drastically reducing monthly energy costs.
• Applying occupancy sensors in rooms that are not occupied will allow for lights to automatically shut off for a specific duration of time the room is
unoccupied.
• Taking advantage of daylight where applicable using windows for much needed light can further reduce the amount of energy needed to successful continue working.
• Installing dimmer switches to rooms that do not call for 100% lighting will help control the amount of energy used and allow for energy decline.
• 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.
