18 Seconds

Posted by Ed Maurer:
18 seconds is the time it takes to change an incandescent light bulb to a CFL. Yahoo is sponsoring the 18 Seconds movement to get more people to use CFL’s. The data from this site comes from retailers sales data and represents CFL’s purchased since 1/1/2007.
My state ranked 40 out of 50 in the 18 Seconds ranking (at the time of this post.) Obviously Michigan is not one of the most environmentally conscious states.
