A new bill has been passed by the House of Representatives that requires ultilty companies to produce at least 15% of their energy from renewable rescources by 2020. The bill also makes for more efficient lighting sources. It states that all 100 watt incandescent light bulbs are banned by 2012. By 2020 all lighting scources must be 300% more efficient than today's. The matter of pushing for more E85 fuel is still being negotiated. This is a good step to making America a little more eco friendly and energy independent.

If all 100 watt incandescent light bulbs are banned by 2012, does that mean all 100 watt light bulbs are flourescents? If so, I'm not sure I like the ban.....
