UN Aims to Eradicate Inefficient Incandescent Light Bulbs

Partners in a new United Nations-led initiative want to ensure that as the most inefficient light bulbs disappear from retailers’ shelves in the United States and Europe, those incandescent and halogen bulbs aren’t sold in developing countries. Last month, at the Energy Efficiency Global Forum in Copenhagen, the U.N. Environment Programme, Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), and Philips Lighting (now known as Signify) released a model lighting regulation that will enable developing countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America to easily adopt energy-efficiency standards as stringent as those in the United States and Europe.
