B&Q and British Gas launch first nationwide light bulb amnesty

As the clocks go back and we all start turning our lights on earlier, B&Q has announced the first ever nationwide light bulb amnesty in partnership with British Gas.
From Friday 31 October, anyone who takes a traditional light bulb to any B&Q store in England, Scotland and Wales will receive two energy saving bulbs to replace it, helping customers to reduce both their carbon footprint and electricity bills.

In most homes lighting accounts for around 15% of the electricity bill. By changing just one standard bulb to an energy saving bulb, consumers can save £3 per year and 11kg CO2. By replacing all the remaining standard (GLS) bulbs in your home with energy saving bulbs, they could save around £45 a year from energy bills, and 170kg CO2.

Euan Sutherland, B&Q Chief Executive comments “Standard bulbs last for between 1,000-1,500 hours - about a year. Energy saving bulbs can last up to 15,000 hours - that's over ten years, saving you money as well as reducing the amount of energy you use. As part of our commitment to One Planet Living we are dedicated to helping customers make their homes as energy efficient as possible, so we hope this light bulb amnesty will encourage people to make the small changes to their homes that are good for their pockets and good for the planet. ”

British Gas sent me a "free" pair in a box through the post. They retail for about 35p each at Morrisons. The postage was probably more than that? It was extremely 'generous' of them considering they just put my heating bill up by 35% (after recording record levels of profit) and I'm sitting in front of the PC in an overcoat because I can't afford to switch the centtral heating on any more.
