Earthmate low mercury CFL bulbs are the best "green" option for CFLs.

There are plenty of good reasons and benefits to buying Earthmate CFL bulbs as listed above. Earthmate bulbs are the "greenest" most Earth-friendly compact fluorescent light bulbs on the market. They are energy-efficient (require 75% less energy, ENERGY STAR rated and are instant-on, flicker-free), but they also contain features not found with most other CFL bulbs.

Compact fluorescent lights require mercury to work. Most CFL bulb manufacturers use 4-5 milligrams of mercury. Earthmate Mini Spiral bulbs are different; they only require 1 mg of mercury to operate efficiently. That is 75% less mercury! If an Earthmate Mini Spiral bulb breaks in a landfill, its environmental impact is much less than your average CFL bulb.

However, all CFL bulbs should be recycled. Please keep any and all mercury (regardless of the amount of mercury content) out of our fragile eco-system. Mercury can contaminate the air, land and water of the environment, which causes problems for all of us.

Earthmate bulbs have another requested feature. Many light bulb manufacturers produce energy-efficient CFL bulbs, but they end up much longer than a traditional standard incandescent bulb.

Again, Earthmate Mini Spiral bulbs are different. The Earthmate 15 Watt Mini Spiral bulb is only 3.9" long (shorter than a 4.4" incandescent bulb). As the wattage increases, so does the length of the Earthmate Mini Spiral bulbs, but not by much (see below for the overall lengths of the popular CFL wattage bulbs).

The shorter Earthmate CFL bulbs mean you can use them in most applications unlike other big and bulky compact fluorescent light bulbs.

Earthmate 15 Watt CFL (60 Watt Incandescent) = 3.9" Long

Earthmate 20 Watt CFL (75 Watt Incandescent) = 4.3" Long

Earthmate 23 Watt CFL (100 Watt Incandescent) = 4.5" Long

Earthmate bulb packaging is super Earth-friendly and just another way to reduce global warming. The packaging materials are made from 100% post-consumer waste and is entirely recyclable. Unlike most other light bulb manufacturers that use hard-to-open plastic, Earthmate uses easy-to-open, recyclable cardboard packaging.

Many light bulb manufacturers also use petroleum-based ink on their packaging. As you guessed it, not Earthmate. Earthmate continues its eco-sensitivity by using soy-based ink on their packaging further reducing the impact on the environment.

Don't forget that Earthmate CFL bulbs are actually cheaper than standard incandescent light bulbs because of not just the energy savings acheived, but the CFL bulbs last longer than standard incandescent bulbs.

Earthmate Mini Spiral bulbs have reduced mercury content (1 mg), shorter bulb lengths, eco-friendly packaging (recycled and recyclable easy-open cardboard with soy-based ink), instant-on, flicker-free performance, 10,000 hour rated life and are ENERGY-STAR energy-efficient. These Earthmate compact fluorescent light bulbs are the best "green" option for CFLs that you can buy!
