Downtown Austin
Light Bulbs Need to Be Recycled
RECEIVED Mon., Dec. 10, 2007
Dear Editor,
A comment on Daniel Mottola's “Naked City” article [News, Dec. 7] about the push to use energy-saving compact fluorescent bulbs. His was one of the first to mention the need to recycle these bulbs, and the city's Household Hazardous Waste Facility, while managed by good folks, is not going to be used by many consumers. The city and Austin Energy are going to need to really make this an important education matter.
