Businesses see the light
The National Trust is giving its 54,000 staff and volunteers a day off to encourage them to lead greener lives.
In a campaign called “Leap forward for the climate“, the charity wants its workers to use 29 February to reduce their carbon footprint.
They will be encouraged to switch to low-energy light bulbs and make other home improvements on their day off.
Menawhile, Southern Electric and The Sun have joined forces to launch The Great British Light Switch - a national campaign to cut Britain’s CO2 emissions and lead to swift action on climate change.
In the biggest green giveaway of its kind ever, Southern Electric gave away 4.5 million free energy saving light bulbs to over 2 million Sun readers on Saturday 19th January 2008.
Here, low-energy lightbulbs cost less than ordinary ones in certain supermarkets.
Get half-a-dozen and get your money back in months!
