A team of Yale scientists has found that certain countries and some U.S. states stand to benefit from the use of compact fluorescent lighting more than others in the fight against global warming. Some places may even produce more mercury emissions by switching from incandescent light bulbs to compact fluorescent lighting. The study, which appears online October 1 in the journal Environmental Science and Technology, looked at all 50 states and 130 countries.    (source: opa.yale.edu)
