From the BBC:

"Australia has announced plans to ban incandescent light bulbs and replace them with more energy efficient fluorescent bulbs.

"The environment minister said the move could cut the country's greenhouse gas emissions by 4 million tonnes by 2012."

For what it's worth, I've begun using these bulbs in my lights. As the old bulbs burn out, I replace them with these new energy-saving bulbs.

However, my "emissions" remain more or less constant. More or less.
