LIGHTING EFFICIENCY SAFE STEWARDSHIP fluorescent lamps & tubes no Since April 2011, the “LESS” RECYCLING PROGRAM has provided safe and convenient disposal of fl uorescent lights from Napa households. In this time, over 10,500 compact fl uorescent lights (CFLs) and 8,500 fl uorescent tubes have been collected, shipped and recycled from Napa LESS program retail partners (who participate on a voluntary basis). Over 6 tons of mercury-containing lamps and tubes have been recycled and kept away from improper landfi ll disposal so far through the LESS program … let’s keep up the good work Napa! Lámparas fl uorescentes son hasta cuarto veces más efi cientes y duran hasta diez veces más que las lámparas incandescentes tradicionales. Es importante cambiar a lámparas fl uorescentes por el ahorro de energía, pero deben ser recicladas apropiadamente cuando se funden… ¡no las deseches en la basura! ¿Por qué es ilegal desechar en la basura? Eliminación incorrecta puede causar mercurio ser liberado en el aire, el agua y el suelo, representando un riesgo para la salud pública y el medio ambiente.
