EU Launches 1984-Style Crackdown On Light Bulbs
Panic buying in UK as proles forced to use mercury filled, seizure causing, flawed “low energy” alternative

Wednesday, January 7, 2009
Panic buying of 100 watt incandescent light bulbs has surged in the UK after shops stopped stocking the item in anticipation of an EU ban on all traditional light bulbs to be enforced in Britain by 2012.
While parts of the UK shivered under Arctic temperatures of -12 degrees, the EU and the Labour Party furthered its agenda to outlaw one of man’s greatest ever inventions all in the name of preventing global warming.
British citizens will be forced to completely switch over to so-called “low energy” bulbs, or CFLs (compact fluorescent lamps) in three years, despite the fact that CFL’s cause illnesses such as skin rashes, eyestrain, migraine, headaches and even seizures in those who suffer from epilepsy.
The EU is even flouting its own regulations to mandate the changeover – the “low energy” bulbs contain mercury which is banned as a toxic substance by the EU, leading to problems with disposal.
(ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW)
Indeed, even if one were to accept the premise that changing light bulbs can save the earth when humans have no control over a gargantuan radiation-spewing fireball that comprises 99.8% of the Solar System’s mass called the Sun, CFL bulbs are notorious in the UK for the fact that they routinely break and are too weak to illuminate a room properly. People will simply use more lamps to offset the bad lighting, thereby completely defeating the object of “low energy” lighting in the first place.
CFL’s also fail to work inside ovens, refrigerators, or inside enclosed fittings, such as garages or patios and they are also incompatible with dimmer switches.
But the real agenda behind the farce has nothing to do with saving the planet and everything to do with exploiting people’s legitimate concerns about the environment to enforce regulation of behavior as a curtain raiser for more taxation and control over our personal lives.
A startling parallel can be drawn from George Orwell’s dystopian classic, 1984, in which a black market for sharp razor blades emerged after The Party ensured that shops only provided blunt ones to prevent the proles from slashing their wrists. Now the proles of 2009 Airstrip One are busy buying up the remaining stock of the traditional light bulb.
From the book,
Everyone kept asking you for razor blades. Actually he had two unused ones which he was hoarding up. There had been a famine of them for months past. At any given moment there was some necessary article which the Party shops were unable to supply. Sometimes it was buttons, sometimes it was darning wool, sometimes it was shoelaces; at present it was razor blades. You could only get hold of them, if at all, by scrounging more or less furtively on the ‘free’ market.
‘I wanted to ask you whether you’d got any razor blades,’ he said. ‘Not one!’ said Winston with a sort of guilty haste. ‘I’ve tried all over the place. They don’t exist any longer.’
100 watt light bulbs will cease to exist on the open market in the UK within weeks and they will be followed by all incandescent light bulbs within three years as the genius of Thomas Edison 140 years ago that marked one of mankind’s greatest achievements is made obsolete by world government regulation.
When are we going to put a stop to this? If they can ban the humble light bulb with barely a whimper of dissent then what is stopping them from banning books, free speech, and anything else they deem a threat to the wider society?
As Christopher Brooker writes in today’s Daily Mail, “A knee-jerk decision taken by a bunch of sanctimonious, ignorant politicians once again bring home to us what it means to have handed over the power to run our country to this crazily undemocratic form of government known as the European Union.”
“It is destined in one way or another to cause most of us considerable inconvenience and aggravation – all to achieve virtually no practical benefit at all.”
The “benefit” from all this will be an energy saving equivalent to the output of a single small coal-fired power station, even if one accepts the increasingly discredited notion that CO2 emissions cause global warming and as Britain itself freezes under Arctic temperatures and the world experiences its coldest year this decade in anticipation of what many are predicting is the onset of a new ice age.
But the enforcers simply don’t give a damn and will continue to claim that global cooling is a part of global warming and that even if hell itself freezes over, our personal lives and behavior must be regulated, outlawed and taxed in order to save the world from the chicken little scenario of man-made climate change while the real environmental problems continue to be shunned.

Each one of these new light bulbs contain up to 5 mg of mercury. The average person throws these in the kitchen trash. Mercury in our landfills enters the water table and further dumbs us down and makes us sick. These monsters will pass laws everyday to ensure your body is full of much poison as possible. A sick human is easily controlled. Very Sad
January 7th, 2009 at 10:27 am
What about the mercury inside the bulbs? What happens when millions of these bulbs wind up in the environment? As far as I’m concerned, mercury pollution is more of a threat to humans than global warming. What about LED lamps. If they were really concerned about the environment, you would think they would use LED technology instead of going to the cheap alternative.
January 7th, 2009 at 10:34 am
Mercury is good! Slave, OBEY! I hate those new lights. The color and brightness is no where near natural. I have a neighbor with those lights and they bother my eyes. If you have a gauss gage, which measures the strength of the EMF (electo-magnetic field) you will find that they emit way more EMFs than a normal bulb. The whole “global warming” or “climate change” is B.S. It is a way to steal the fruits of our labor and enslave the ignorant masses who believe everything the see on TV or read in the newspaper. Follow the money and SLAVE, OBEY!
January 7th, 2009 at 10:39 am
The elite and uber rich are rediculous if they think they can push this cheap crap on the world.
Lets see here. We have mercury light bulbs that harm our health and dont light a room properly. We have geneticly modified foods causing cancers, suicides and other illness. Pesticides in soda, and rats in all countries government houses. Human rats.
January 7th, 2009 at 10:45 am
boycott all of this green crap. it has nothing to do with saving the envrionment and EVERYTHING to do with MAKING MONEY.
the bastards that polluted everything are the ones now blaming us for it, much like how the same pricks who engineered this financial catastrophe are benefitting from it just as they did in the first crash
January 7th, 2009 at 10:54 am
higher EMF due to a miniature transformer in the casing of the bulb, it is the same concept as tube style incandescent lighting, the gas tube is filed with mercury as well as other gases. If one of the breaks open, do not inhale what comes out, it is very bad for you. I am an electrical technologist and have studied the tech in depth, even the energy savings are clouded, as more of these are used, they are inductive loads, therefore current and voltage fall out of syncronization which creates waste, as well, these produce alot of 5th and 7th level harmonics which in turn is more waste. If the power factor is not corrected on an inductive load, it is not that efficient at all.
This being said, for health concerns, we should be switching all of our power grid to primarily DC electricity as it emits no EMF because there is no alternating electromagnetic field.
January 7th, 2009 at 11:25 am
Force-feed the “elite” bastards their mercury filled “energy savers”.
January 7th, 2009 at 11:26 am
There probably is an ice age coming again but this is being hidden in order to use ‘global warming’ as an excuse to gain more control and establish the UE as a governmental entity, and “global warming” is another sellable lie to enable “…. the real agenda behind the farce has nothing to do with saving the planet and everything to do with exploiting people’s legitimate concerns about the environment to enforce regulation of behavior as a curtain raiser for more taxation and control over our personal lives.

They’ve been enforcing Californians for decades to use fluorescents in kitchens and bathrooms during the building permit process. This is not so new an idea.
January 7th, 2009 at 12:07 pm
I have a couple of these mercury lamps in my kitchen/bathroom. It means that you have to switch them on for half an hour before you actually need to use them. I could not imagine using them in the living room or any other room where anyone needs to read something immediately.
Fortunately, standing floor halogen lamps are available in this country, so this might encourage people to explore all sorts of alternatives.
January 7th, 2009 at 12:11 pm
I heard Ken Lay may have moved to Europe. Since he’s in hiding he’s hoping the dimmer the light the better his chances of not being recognized. They don’t get much sunlight in England.
January 7th, 2009 at 12:22 pm
Everyone should stock up on Lightbulbs, REFUSE TO CO-OPERATE – THATS HOW WE, THE RESISTANCE, GET THINGS DONE.
Rebel at all costs.
I am an artist and I like to use daytime bulbs which give a more suitable light for colour work. Now I wont be able to do so, I’ll have to use those dreadful dim contraptions.
Whose bright idea was this anyway?
January 7th, 2009 at 12:56 pm
A little off topic here, but damn, cnn is total double think/speak. Yesterday gas prices rise on fear of supply and today they take their largest % drop on fear of you guessed it… Fear of supply. Wow does fear on supply make gas go down or up, it can’t be both!!!!!!
January 7th, 2009 at 1:12 pm
This is hard to believe. How can governments try to control their people like that? It is just wrong!
January 7th, 2009 at 1:26 pm
USE HIGH POWER LED’S YOU RETARDS! Paul Joseph Watson is once again not giving all the story in his news articles. LED’s are pure light and use much less electricity than CFL’s could ever dream of. LED’s are the wave of the future. Paul, PLEASE give all options in your news stories, we don’t want you becoming propaganda media like the rest of them.
January 7th, 2009 at 1:29 pm
Those “energy saving” light bulbs are shit, and they don’t last very long either.

@hesibudyfabla, you are very correct, LED’s use .7 volts a piece (DC) therefore they emit 0 EMF. a matrix LED setup is the wave of the future as you say. that is why when you buy storm lights, it’s a LED grid and is usually batery free as it consumes really low power and it is usually crank or shake charge system.

Urgent…
Robert Chapman is reporting the following in his January 7 2009 edition of “The International Forecaster”.
[“Patriots in EU and US intelligence believe that the Gaza operation underway right now might have zero to do with Hamas missiles being fired into Israel—but instead might be an IDF WMD planting expedition—that can then be attributed to Hamas—followed by a “nuclear winter”—type WMD event on US soil which will then be blamed on Hamas/Iran—which will then set the stage for a US nuclear attack on Iran—before Bush leaves office—so we are now in a “the time is now—the match is hot”—nuclear 9-11 threat window either before or soon after barky takes office.”]
Robert Chapman would never report a potential nuclear 911 false flag event unless he believed there was a real possibility of the event occurring because Bob understands the potential fear associated with such a claim!
January 7th, 2009 at 3:06 pm
The EU is about to become a totalitarian state.
The Lisbon treaty is the final corner stone to create a superstate with
1) an unelected president
2) an unelected commission with sole right to introduce legislation
3) an unelected foreign minister with sole right to represent the EU
4) a clause compelling all EU substates to back EU policy and forbidding criticism
5) a clause making military assistance from all states compulsory in case of an attack on EU soil – just imagine a false flag 9 11 in Paris and all the EU states will have to send soldiers to China or whatever competitor the Bilderberg freemason, CIA, Knights of Malta elite that control the EU say
6) an EU police force with the right to arrest anyone anywhere in the EU without reference to the country’s police or legal system
7) the right to seize natural resources such as water from any EU state if it is deemed by the EU commission to be an emergency – if they haven’t seized them anyway through compuslory privatisation as in Bolivia where their financial arm buys up all the water etc
None of the EU countries got a vote except Ireland. Ireland only got a vote because the courts ruled that the Lisbon treated so fundamentally altered the constitution and rights of the Irish that the government could not just sign it off as nothing as they planned to.
All the EU governments are controlled by freemasons. Every EU leader today and leader of the opposition, finance minister and home office or justice minister and leading politicians is a freemason almost.
The meida is controlled by the freemason, secret service agents, which is why you’ve never seen jobs for journalists all over the place and why you see the same names for decades in newspapers like the Times.
They all filter the news to keep people ignorant about what’s going on, The Lisbon Treaty was presented to the Irish as 300 clauses about amendments to the original treaties.
The EU forbad a printing of the Lisbon Treaty side by side with the original paragraphs to obscure the enormity of the changes.
Remember, the EU was founded as the coal and steel community by German companies, including Krupp and Thyssen and other Nazi companies. They built up the community to take control of Europe by the back door.
The royal families like the Windsors were better friends of Hitler than the public know and Edward had to resign for his sympathies. Prince Philip has brothers who served in the Nazi party. The British monarchy is a German family import from the 18th century.
The introduction of light bulbs like this make no environmental sense because the EU has refused to force German car manufacturers to make more efficient engines, which would save 100s more carbon dioxide than the light bulbs.
The German car companies and companies like BP and Royal Dutch shell and the steel companies are growing sources of carbon dioxide in the EU even now and together account for most if it.
The light bulbs is another excuse to intrude on the citizen’s lives and reduce their quality of life. Everyone knows a bright light leads to cheerfulness and sociability.
A few years down the line, EU ciitzens will have to accept, no doubt, energy boxers in their homes to monitor all their energy emissions – and their phone calls and internet usage.
Orwell’s 1984 will be a reality!
Th EU freemason banking elite with the American freemason banking elite destroyed the finanacial system using the same method as 1929-1932 when useless assets were repacked as triple AAA by the freemason-controlled rating agencies and bought up in huge numbers by the feemason-controlling banking directors without supervision by the freemason controlled financial watchdogs.
The economy has been destroyed and those with cash can buy up the assets on the cheap – see the mafia in Italy going on a spending spree with its drug cash. See BP and Royal Dutch shareholders and what they can buy now.
The impoverished people have to be dealt with. How? Revoltion us not what they want. Hence the masses are kept in the dark, Nationalism is encouraged by groups the freemason CIA elite fund including the Neo nazis.
The aim is to pit the impoverished against the impoverished, create a totalitarian state as happened in 1933 under Hitler (also supported by freemasons and the Thule society and by Prescott Bush, the US banker of Krupp and Thyssen, and also Kennedy! Though you never hear about that in the filter in the US that is operated through Operation Mockingbird, still in at work today.
That’s why people like CNN anchor Anderson Cooper couldn’t get a foot into the door of journalism – until he did an internship at the CIA and lo and behold, all doors magically open.
Also, the EU wants to build up its military muscle by creating an EU army with an EU industrial base to invade and conquer resource rich countries like Russia as global warming bites and water runs out.
All the freemason governments of Europe have signed the Lisbon Treaty often without even a parliamentary vote with the blessing of the freemason constitutional courts.
The freemason controlled courts in Germany for example have just banned the Celtic Cross symbol on the grounds it is a Nazi emblem ignoring the fact it is a central Christian emblem.
But at the same time, the higher courts in Germany allowed Neo nazis to march through Passau this week on the grounds of protecting freedom of speech.
Read up on the freemason agenda to destroy all values and religion.
Read up on how th efreemason controlled German police abandoned the search for the Neo Nazis who tried to kill the Passau police chief a few weeks ago quickly.
Read up about how a Green parliamentarian had to ask parliament for month on month statistics to discover that there had been a 30 per cent increase in Neo Nazi incidences up to 10,000.
That is 10,000 and the freemason German government is not only turning a blind eye to it, it is funding the movement to get the men they impoverished to direct their anger away from the government to irrelevant foreigners – irrelevant to the running of the state.
Social benefits are cut to put on the pressure.
The social dems and the cons work together because both are headed by freemasons,
Kohl plucked Merckel out of obscurity and put her in charge and she will pluck the next freemason out of the ranks and put them on the throne and so the network goes on.
Brown, Blair, Cameron, Osbourne are all freemasons. The highest ranking ones go to the Bilderberg meetings to coordinate world wide activities.

Please site your sources for the statement “…CFL’s cause illnesses such as skin rashes, eyestrain, migraine, headaches and even seizures in those who suffer from epilepsy.” I assume that to be credible, these sources will be peer-reviewed studies from internationally respected scientific journals.
January 7th, 2009 at 3:47 pm
We know that global warming is bollocks and that the bulbs are useless and perhaps toxic.
On another story today on PP we learn of the regulating of the word wide web.
We simply have to stand up to the evil bastards that want to control our lives.
Time for revolution…the sooner the better.

Hey, the lights have mercury in them. Didn’t you know that mercury is an essential part of any well-balanced diet (NOT!).
Just SHUT UP, DO AS YOU’RE TOLD, and everything is going to go smoothly, kay?
January 7th, 2009 at 4:12 pm
They are cheaper on the internet anyway, but lets hope smaller traders start faking the ban. Its time to educate our grocers. Speak to them, hand out DVD’s and flyers to them.
January 7th, 2009 at 4:41 pm
Bush signed a bill into law that requires the samething in the USA. The law goes into effect in 2014. He signed it in 2007. Australia has a ban on incandescent bulbs that takes effect next year. Some of the places that sell the mercury bulbs accept them back for recycling but I’m sure it won’t be long before you have to pay a mercury desposal fee when you return them.

@ kol
This information you are posting is irrelevent. In Every religion you find a loop hole
to justify killing. Every religion past and present has participated in this as long as they have been around. Religion is a powerful tool and it has been used to manipulate large numbers
of people to rightous lunacy time and time again.
what I’m getting at.
It seems to me that you are leaving propaganda on why one religion is better than the other. You leave a paragraph bashing jews and what there loop hole in commiting murder is,
then you offer a solution, The CHRIST COMMANDMENTS OF LOVE. the fact you believe that is fine with me, but the way I see it is you are the pot calling the kettle black. christains
are just as guilty of this as anyone religion.
I do not agree with what Israel is doing to the people in gaza at all. But looking
at this situation and putting your paticulair believe system up on a pedistal is being
very arrogent. The bad karma is adding up on all sides. We need to start understanding
that the way our belief systems are set up can only lead to disaster and letting go of
this primitive way of thinking may be answer or at the very least learn to tolorate eachother.
regardless life is the most important and common bond all human being share.

Pissed In Canada: you claim to be an electrical technologist yet you have no knowledge of electrical transmission. DC current was disregarded al long time ago as it is an inefficient means of electrical transmission because it is incredibly lossy. Thomas Edison attempted DC power transmission but it was too costly due to its losses. AC power transmission was used by Nicola Tesla and Edison basically stole it from him for a song and and a dance. You may have read a few books but you have zero idea what you are talking about. I suggest you read history

i actually like the new bulbs but i could be wrong. i was not aware of the mercury content. i will do some research on this. i would like to see the US become less dependent on foreign oil and i thought that this (cfl bulbs) were a small step in that direction.
January 7th, 2009 at 7:42 pm
@ ThatsRight
Obviously you are the one with lack of electrical knowledge, all intercontinental and long range electrical transmission use High voltage DC as a means of transport, 3 phase AC power looses power through Eddie currents that transfer from the 3 wire system, why do you think wires are in a triangle formation for AC transmission you tool. And why do you think that household conductor is spun in a spiral you dick. It’s so that the resulting inductance partially cancels itself as the inductive fields interact. The only reason that AC is the prevalent source of transmission is that generator inherently create AC power. Back before the digital age their were no high power Diodes to make rectifier banks so producing DC proved difficult. There have been many breakthroughs in technology in the last 100 years yet we still use anequated technologies like fossil fuels and rudementry generators that have not changed in design in 100 years, c’mon.
Why don’t you go pick up a text book and educate yourself before making baseless propagandized references to scientific history. Don’t try and attack my credentials, i got the diploma in my office and my electrical license in my wallet asshole.
But you are right about Edison stealing the tech… well partially right, in actuality it was the Rockerfellers that supresed Nicola Tesla and discredited him because he was using their money to research Renewable cheap energy without dependencies on big business. Tesla had thousands of patents (many of which were destroyed). He had developed capacitive electrical generators that if burried tapped the earth electromagnetic field and produced energy perpetually with no moving parts. Current science tries to discredit this as 0 point energy but they are not explaining it correctly to the masses therefore they make us think it’s energy from nothing. Which of course is not the case.

Listen here, you slave. You will obey! Drink your melamine, eat the GMO, take your “vaccines” with mercury in them, and consume aspartame. I’m going to take your pension and your house. I’m going to CPS your children and put them in a home and drug them up so I don’t have to hear their bi**hing. I’m going to disarm you with gun regulation so you can’t get your freedom back. If you don’t do what I say I’m going to S.W.A.T. team your ungrateful ass with para military federalized police. Your lucky i even let you breath the air infested with chem trails!

hey pissed off, read this as just one example: http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes......as-edison/
January 7th, 2009 at 8:38 pm
you see that is good, at least i can respectfully respond to that. Just because they phase it out does not mean that is inferior. When they speak of “economical it is only from a hardware perspective. DC cables have to be larger and because of that it is less “economical”. The idea that AC is superior for transmission could be argued and has been argued for a very long time. We should not need to debate over this as i doubt we would see eye to eye regardless. I am what i say i am so weither you think i have papers or not i honestly don’t care.
You need to consider who the funders of Tesla were and then you would see why we went to AC power transmission. As well, our entire energy system is based on “CONSUMPTION” not reduction. That goes for gas, electricity, money. Just like our current crisis, oh we are in huge debt, ohh i know, let’s spend our way out of it. Isn’t that kinda like trying to dig yourself out of a hole???
January 7th, 2009 at 8:51 pm
Isn’t it ironic that there is an ad for ecoloblue, a eco-friendly product and the very article on this page speaks against using “green” and/or eco-friendly products? lol
January 7th, 2009 at 9:02 pm
Every system finacial, religous, fast food, medical… ect. run off consumption.
that is very true, why do think they can’t find a cure for cancer, its big
money pharm. corporations make and hospitals make huge profits on
kimo treatments. it represses cancer and it works but it doesn’t cure it,
and the people just keep coming back. Do a little research and you
will see that a few people have been close to cure and were shut down by the FDA.
its all about profit. I still gotta do with pissed in canada, Energy works the same way.
I did my research.
January 7th, 2009 at 9:04 pm
I would not consider ecoloblue as a Green product, i hate how they coin it as green energy. All absorbtions or uses of energy have an effect on nature, what we need is balance. Even windmills affect migrating paths of birds. Solar currently seems good, but i hypothesize that if we were to use solar on a massive scale, like say 10% of the earth serfice, we would begin to have an impact on the globe. Basically by converting the heat energy from the sun into other forms of energy such as light or electricity, we would be eliminating a heat source that was naturally meant to heat the planet. Most of the heat energy we would convert to light for example, would end up shooting back into outter space and therefore not obsorbed. This could create a cooling effect but then again, it is just a hypothesis. I don’t have the funds to study this concept as i’m not funded by the rockerfellers as tesla was, lol.
January 7th, 2009 at 9:07 pm
Radiation therapy is by far the stupidist form of euthenasia. A person on kimo is basically trying to outlive the cancer as radiation destroys all tissue. But wait a minute, doesn’t radiation also cause cancer. Riddle me that batman!!!!
January 7th, 2009 at 9:24 pm
Mercury is not harmful unless it is methylated (ie attached to a CH3 functional group). Without this methylisation it cannot cross the blood-brain barrier. A certain level of heavy metal pollution must be accepted if we are to live in a modern society, though the level must not be approaching that which is harmful to humans or the first level of the food chain (the first trophic level). These bulbs show (thankfully) a ‘frameshift’ in the ‘me’ society to the ‘us’ society, why do so many people sign up to this ‘us against them’ mentality. What is good for the environment is, eventually, great for all of humanity.
January 7th, 2009 at 9:25 pm
ya no shit. its like curing emphazema with a cigerette if you think about it.
I dont see the logic either. I really don’t understand why people have lost ther common sense.

Just try and buy a 150 watt bulb , its fucking impossible

CFL Tracking site:
http://www.onebillionbulbs.com/
How many bulbs will they buy?
That website is creepy as hell! Its just light bulbs now, but who knows what other types of databases there are, and what else will pop up. Sadly with Myspace, Google, YouTube, and Facebook, many do the work for them. Spend money, help the air, ruin your water!!! If you were to find some at $3 each. Average small home : 20 bulbs. Theres $60. The damn things dont last very long. So lets say in a year replace ten of them twice. And the remaining ten three times theres $210. Average US Home : 10656 kWh per year according to – http://www.tennesseepolicy.org.....cle_id=367. Change 20, 100W bulbs with a 25W CFL bulb. You would save, according to the figures on onebillionbulbs.com, 2192 kWh Annually. At a cost of $0.08 a kWh. For a grand savings of $175.36. What the real kicker is these bulbs are $4-$20. Depending on what you are using them for, and whether or not you need light to read and well do things in. I found a low mercury bulb @ 1mg, for $4, and it uses 10W. But, I’m sure you get a specail bonus for headaches, or noise. I was living in an apartment where EVERYTHING was these damn CFL lights when I moved in, most of the fixed fixtures buzzed. Another benefit, I think to keeping it old school, with my down homie Edision, his lights put off heat, its a cold mo-fo this year!

I am ashamed of being portuguese, Treaty of “lisbon”?

These bulbs contain less mercury than the long fluorescent tube-style globes.
I don’t agree with the sales ban, but how many people freaking out here have fluorescent tubes in their house?

@EXPOSE NWO… brilliant idea.. i’ll start writing on all my bills…
As for the new bulbs.. i agree with most of the ppl on the forum, these new bulbs are toxic, and innefective. The light they create is mediocre (doens’t have the full light spectrum), and as per Elton Mayo work, we know lightning and colours affect our daily life.
As for the Mercury, we can only assume it is a trick just like the Fluoride in our toothpaste. Fluoride is a by-product of the aluminium industry, they didn’t know what to do, so they just inject it in our daily products to kill us slowly. So the new bulbs, exactly the same, some industry has a by-product of Mercury and they just use it in another mass consumption product.
Those bubls are not safe for the environment, and will spill tons and tons of mercury in the environment (how many Bulbs a day are broken all over the world, multiply that by the mercury in them) and are not eficient as they claim to be. LED is the future in light technology, thus the reason why EVERY traffic light in the US is being replaced by LED. They last longer, are cheaper, safer, and consumme less electricity…

It is time for us to start trating eachother with love and understanding.
If we were united as the global consciousness that we are all these policies and laws wouldnt even last 1 day.
Reemember what happened in Washington when a few hundred people meditated for a week for peace? Crime dropped almost 50%.
We must know and treat the cause not the consequences , when we do that all of this crap will disapear in a second.
We must know our true potential, wich is enormous.
Alex Jones and David Icke are just amazing!
Meditation , Wisdom, peace and love is the answer!

Lightbulbs…. one of the cheapest, easiest to use and best primers for explosives. Fill that bulb up with blackpowder,seal, attach electrics, attach trigger… booom. Or just fill a room with gas and put a filled lightbulb in a socket, then wait for someone to pull the switch… booom
Of course that sort of dangerous equipment must be made illegal.

Daniel & Aristoteles:
There are more sinister parts of the Lisbon treaty; for instance, the treaty makes it illegal for unions to arrange aggressive strikes, lockouts etc.
Any participant in such actions can be fined with up to 5000£, and thats a fine which is imposed on any individual participating and not the union itself.
Since this means no workers can challenge their employers we are in thruth serfs, totally in the hand of the coorporations “god will”.
If you dont agree with their intentions they can just simply put you in a state of personal bankrupcy and dept (unless you have a fat savings account, then you can ofcourse by your ass out of trouble).
No money (employment) -> No Home/No Food -> No resistance

Here is a link:
http://www.anapsid.org/cnd/diffdx/mercury2.html
“No health organization will dispute that mercury is a toxin: It arguably ranks as the second-most-poisonous compound on earth, after plutonium.”
Here in America you need to spend a ridiculous amount of money to get rid of asbestos. Isn’t mercury even worse, but they want to spread it around?

I think the same crap may be happening over here in the U.S.. I was at Wal-mart (yes the “Company store”) buying some light bulbs and was pissed when I couldn’t buy either 50, 75 or 100 watt bulbs. I could only buy 67 watt or 90 watt or something of the like while at the same time, the “energy saving” fluorescent bulbs were on sale -then I see this article… lame.
I’ve told people till I’m blue in the face about things like this. I’ve told them that I’ve researched Illuminati (i’m using this as a generic term) for over 15 years and people only laugh at me or tell me I’m crazy. People it’s time to spiritually duck and roll and understand that this world which “they” want to control is only temporary and that we shouldn’t be so caught up in it. So they take our bulbs -good! let them! We’ll find a new way to deal with it. (They gave the African slaves in America the lemons as fruit to eat and now Lemonade is a staple in America -catch my drift?) L.e.d.’s? sure! Whatever! I’ll find a way because I’m tougher and smarter than they are. I don’t operate out of fear and hatred. They want this planet? Let’em have it. I personally feel that we as a species have reached a point where we’ve out grown it. Are the draconian laws they’re placing on us on a daily basis wrong? Abso-fuckin’-lutley! But if the general populace(our brothers and sisters) won’t do anything about it then what can we do?
Remember this idea when you get irate at the injustices of the “elite”: “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. ”
You can’t eat gold. You can’t buy love, and wealth eventually becomes a cage with gold bars. Look at what these “elite” have and they’re still not satisfied! They sit on gold toilet seats, they have the greatest of technology at their whim! They “own” the entire planet and yet they travel around in black bullet-proof specialized limo’s! They have entourages of highly trained mercenary soldiers to protect them at all times! WHAT ARE THEY AFRAID OF? I thought they owned the world! COWARDS! The poor bastards! What a miserable lot they are! Look what they’ve gotten themselves into! Karmically speaking, they’re fucked! In my opinion they have a disease. They are sick, depraved, spiritually malnourished, beat-down and wretched on the inside. They need just as much love as any one of us.
Sorry about that, I guess I’m really gonna miss light bulbs…

We have an energy light in our kitchen, the lighting is so bad that we have brought in 2 lamps to help up. So much for saving energy lol…
Thanks for this story btw, I live in britain and the main stream haven’t reported on this yet.

So true. The light given off by these crap globes are really bad for your eye’s and health.
I’ve heard labs can’t use these florescent globes as they kill cells in tests media.

I was recently in my local home improvement center and they had thousands of these CFLs in a display — it was literally a toxic waste accident waiting to happen.
What’s the plan when someone backs into one of these displays and exposes everyone in the store to dangerous levels of mercury?
It’s fucking idiotic — save the planet! Buy toxic lightbulbs!
January 8th, 2009 at 12:00 pm
“Pssssst…. hey man… you got the bulbs? ”
[looks around nervously..]
“yeah dude, you got the carbon creds?”

LMAO, that was good neon
January 8th, 2009 at 8:42 pm
I have been impressed with the amount of light from my CFL bulbs ( until the air gets cold )! The CFL bulbs sound like a great solution, unless you live in a cold climate. It seems to me that whenever there are any fluorescent lights used for “outdoor” lighting, they get very dim and take much longer to brighten up in the cold!
I like some fluorescent lights that are PROPERLY designed to emit less-harmful, less-irritating light, but NOT as the ONLY CHOICE!
The gas-filled lights used on our newer automobiles have a lot to be desired. They actually hurt my eyes at night when they are in oncoming traffic! These auto headlights should be regulated, not the citizen’s(s’) choice(s)!!!
These kinds of policies should be discredited and disposed of immediately!!!

@”pissed in canada”,
Nice point guy, but Tesla was funded by James Pierpont Morgan ( no better than the Rockefellers ), an early financier, to build the Wardenclyffe Tower Project. When Tesla showed Morgan the system and Morgan asked how he was going to profit from his “investment”, Tesla told him he was doing this to help humanity with a boundless source of energy ( for FREE ). It was then that J.P.Morgan recalled the loan and foreclosed on Nikola Tesla, and had the Wardenclyffe Tower dismantled!
Good points for the other comments, though.

I gave the URL in hopes of educating others who may find some alternatives to experiment with. I absolutely loved what Tesla was about and feel that others should try his humanitarian approach to providing solutions ALL can benefit from!

Mercury is good for us, remember. We inject it into our children with every vaccine so what’s the harm in having it in our water supply via the bulbs being tossed into the landfills? This is what the elite do not drink tap water. They also have their own food supply but that is a different topic altogether.
January 12th, 2009 at 8:05 am
Maybe people should protest by breaking the mercury based globes in EU Council buildings.
The problem is that the manufacturing is limited to mainly China, so you simply can’t say I refuse to use the other toxic globes, as you wont be able to buy the technology you have a right to use.
January 14th, 2009 at 7:08 pm
I’m an electrician, and according to some electrical supply houses, this is going to be world wide. The manufacturers are going to stop making incandescents. And contrary to the article, they DO make diiming compact fluorescents. They make a CFL for any and every purpose one might have. This includes cold weather lamps for the fridge. However, I agree with the mercury concerns. At the facility where I work, we are required to recycle all fluorescent lamps. Would you like to know how often a bulb gets broken? I’m sure you can imagine. Most people can’t be bothered with throwing their plastic and paper into a separate bin. But they’ll remember with those light bulbs right?
Another issue I have with them, or any fluorescent light, is that they flicker at a rate of 60 times a second. There have been scientific studies done on the relationship between frequencies and how they influence brain wave patterns. I’m not sure what the exact results are for 60 hertz, but people complain of feeling more irritable and anxious after spending time in a room lit with fluorescents. No wonder all of the office buildings and manufacturers want to switch over.

Reading with fluorescent lights is bad for your eyes. Try reading for a few minutes and things start getting blurry.
January 25th, 2009 at 5:23 pm
This article is hopefully meant to be a satire — at least, it’s written that way.
Mercury is a problem with compact fluorescent lamps, however, there’s less mercury in a CFL than what gets set free by burning coal in the power station for operating a traditional bulb instead.
They don’t flicker at 50 or 60Hz like strip lighting, they use electronics and are switched in the two-digit KHz range, which the human eye cannot register.
Breakage — I never had one break on me.
Light quality — I have several new “warm white” lamps and I can’t tell any difference to a traditional bulb. Plus, if they’re too dark, get a higher wattage, which will still be only a fraction of that of a comparable incandescent bulb.
Warm up time – yes, that’s a problem. However:
All traditional bulbs can be replaced by halogen bulbs; they will remain available. They give off the same type of light as non-halogen bulbs and are a bit more efficient than those (however, not as efficient as CFLs).
Therefore my solution is using CFLs for light which stays switched on for longer periods of time (desk/floor lamps in the living room etc.), and phasing out old bulbs for halogen bulbs for places where light needs to be available instantly or for short periods of time.
On the “global warming “hoax”” — come one. Most scientists agree that man-made global warming is a reality and that we need to act; of course it’s going to hurt — do you think it’s all just happening in the TV? Doh.
