Change a Light, Change the World
We really can "Change the World" with just one light bulb. The key is that the more people that take this step, the more we can change the world.
Fight the Light!
Don't leave lights on when no one is in the room. If you are going to be out of the room for more than five minutes, turn off the light.

WITH A SIMPLE ACT, WE CAN SAVE OUR PLANET!
