"Earth Hour" to turn off the lights to change the lights

"Earth Hour" activities, the replacement of a new type of LED energy saving lighting is the activity initiator - the World Wide Fund for nature (WWF) to promote a practical action.

To turn off the lights to change the lights, with practical action to practice environmental protection

The global impact of the increasing Earth Hour campaign, greatly improving the public awareness of environmental protection. The public, enterprises and the government actively participate in activities to express support for low-carbon environmental protection, and make energy-saving environmental commitment. But for the cause of environmental protection, "lights out" and commitment is just the beginning.

Low carbon energy saving and environmental protection not only need the people through the "lights out" the action that the attitude and commitment, more people need to make a change and action in life, it is really take care of the earth, as world natural foundation calls.

As for the general public how to carry out commitments to implement environmental protection practice, WWF also gives a variety of simple and feasible methods, such as the replacement of new LED lighting products. The proposal for the World Wide Fund for nature, from the domestic leading LED lighting enterprises three male Aurora marketing director Wang Jun said that the proposal is feasible and very effective, and auroral years adhere to the "green lighting" concept agree without prior without previous consultation. The traditional fluorescent lamp or incandescent lamp for a new type of LED lamps, can achieve very low carbon energy efficiency.

Energy saving lamps considerable benefits, a year to save the annual power generation of the Three Gorges

In order to show that in the light of the way in order to be able to bring a lot of low-carbon energy and environmental change, Wang Jun gave reporters a simple example. 4W LED lighting effect is equivalent to 40W incandescent lamp, every family installed the original 8 incandescent lamps, in the same light conditions, replace 40W incandescent lamp with LED light 4W, according to the daily light for 4 hours, a total of 420.48 kwh, down a year. Electricity 0.6 yuan / degree calculation, a year can save electricity costs $252, but also can reduce the consumption of 168 kilograms of standard coal and carbon emissions of about 420.48 kg (production of electricity consumption of about 0.4 kilograms of standard coal and produce a carbon emissions of 1 kg). If a family of five standards, 1 billion 300 million people nationwide total of 260 million families, a year can save electricity at least 109 billion 300 million degrees than the Three Gorges in 2012 the annual generating capacity of more than 10 billion degrees, the reduction of electricity costs and carbon emissions is considerable, ecological and environmental benefits can not be estimated.

In addition, the traditional energy-saving lamps are not only high energy consumption, there are also hidden dangers of mercury pollution, but the quality of the new LED energy-saving lamps do not have such concerns. Therefore, from all aspects of the use of the form of light to fulfill the commitment to environmental protection is effective, for reducing energy consumption and the effect of carbon emissions is very obvious. Three male Aurora has also been actively advocating and promote consumers through "light" the power to make the actual action of low carbon energy saving and environmental protection.

Lighting is the basic needs of life, it is impossible for people to reduce energy consumption and reduce the use of lighting time, but people can do for low-carbon energy conservation and environmental protection and can effectively change. Whether the air temperature increase of 1 degrees, more buses driving less, eat more vegetables and less meat, LED lighting or family replacement more energy saving and environmental protection, as long as the actual action, lights out acts of people on the "Earth Hour" campaign will not have significance.
