100% post consumer waste packaging using soy-based inks and the lowest mercury content in a compact fluorescent. Couple that with the super small size of the Earthmate 15 watt spiral and you have a compact fluorscent that can go just about anywhere.A growing number of consumers are recognizing the need to take responsibility for the environment and buy eco-sensitive products. Earthmate light bulbs contribute to the fight against global warming by using up to 75% less energy than incandescent bulbs, which reduces the amount of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere through power generation. But Earthmate’s commitment to the environment doesn’t stop there. Even our packaging is designed to help the environment. Have you ever wondered why most energy-saving light bulbs are packaged in hard-to-open plastic clamshells or blisters? Earthmate did. At Earthmate, they didn’t think it made sense to reduce greenhouse gases while filling our landfills with long-lasting solid waste. So our packaging is made with 100% post-consumer waste, printed with soy-based ink, and is completely recyclable. And it doesn’t require scissors or other sharp objects to open!The Facts:Energy Star rated and UL approved Light Output:1000lumensEnergy Used:15 wattsLife:10,000 hoursIncandescent Replacement: 60-watt bulbEnergy Savings: 49Warranty: 7 yearsColor Temperature: 2700K (Soft White)Minimum Starting Temperature:0° FLength: 4-1/16 inchesDiameter: 1-5/8 inches
