Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Big numbers, but tiny in comparison to transport, which itself is small compared to industry
As I said at the actual calculation, it was shockingly small. The biggest part of the savings would come from the bulbs lasting at least 12 times longer (thus less embedded emissions from production and transportation).
Valid, but let's not move the goal posts; new light bulbs were specifically questioned and, thanks to someone's willingness to do some research and number crunching, light bulbs were specifically answered.
Let's at least give thanks before we vault off to the next, existentially exhausting, item on the list of climate change issues.
It's not like we don't have time. Right xuys? Right?
