  Environmentally Friendly Bulbs To Save Energy Are Very Dangerous To Children 
  By Thomas M. Dutkiewicz 

  Forestville, CT - Why is the media acts so surprised that these new bulbs to 
save energy are dangerous? To say that these bulbs are environmentally friendly 
is an oxymoron. They are anything but friendly . . . they are dangerous to the 
environment and to all children. 

  They are florescence bulbs and all florescence bulbs contain dangerous 
Mercury Vapor which is more dangerous than mercury liquid. For decades they 
have been putting mercury vapor in the bulbs. That's what make them work. 

  Mercury in a liquid form can be seen and it balls up which is easier to clean 
up. Mercury vapor on the other hand can not be seen nor can it be detected by 
home owners. You need a special air monitoring device that detects the 
presences of mercury vapor along the floor. You will not find it in your 
breathing zone. 

  The specific gravity of mercury vapor is heavier than air and will settle 
into your rugs and stay there. So next time you break one of these bulbs in 
your home, you are exposing your children to mercury vapor. So remember this 
when you place your baby or children on the floor. 

  You need a special absorption pellet that absorbs mercury vapor on the floor. 
Then the hazmat team must vacuum it up and dispose of the pellet as a 
contaminated material. You then go in with monitoring equipment to see if there 
is any residual mercury left and if there is, you repeat the process. 

  Every single florescence bulb in our schools, lunch rooms, grocery stores 
contain mercury vapor. The mercury vapor is dangerous to all humans especially 
children. Business should not be throwing florescence bulbs away in dumpsters 
which then ends up in our water systems. 

  What's even more deadlier is all of the older ballasts that are running these 
florescence bulbs, they contain Polychlorinated Biphenyl's or PCB's. In 
business renovations these contaminated ballasts are thrown out which contain 
liquid PCB's which also gets into our water system. 

  Home owners now have treat these bulbs as a hazardous material as defined by 
the EPA and the DOT and dispose of them properly. The cost of disposal will 
over shadow the cost savings. A couple of manufactures do print this mercury 
warning on the packaging but no one ever reads the packaging of a light bulb. 

  The undersign has been in the hazardous waste, remediation and transportation 
business for many years. He has cleaned up mercury vapor as well as other 
numerous spills of various kinds.
