The transition from traditional to LED lighting

Incandescent lamps created by Thomas Alva Edison were a path breaking development when they were invested. The humble bulb lit up billions of lives around the globe. The incandescent bulb is cheap and readily available. The low cost of the LED light bulbs is misleading. High energy consumption and maintenance bills actually make it the most expensive lighting technology in the market today.
The recent developments in legislation on energy efficiency are likely to result in the Halogen bulb also seeing the end of its days. Another kind of incandescent lamps that is also being replaced is the halogen lamp. Halogen lamps are made of tungsten, inert gas and halogen. Tungsten acts as the thin filament and requires to be heated at a temperature equal or less than 3,422°C or 6,192°F. Imagine the amount of electrical energy required to heat that tungsten filament!

After several years since the creation of the world, we are now facing the accumulated damages brought about by centuries of mindless exploitation of natural resources by humans. Different strategies and methods are now being devised by individuals, governments, companies and public bodies like the United Nations to undo the years of accumulated damage to mother earth. Among the solutions that now occupy center stage is the banning and phasing-out of some dangerous human creation like the incandescent bulbs and compact fluorescent lamps.
