BBC NEWS | UK | Switch off for traditional bulbs: "Plans to phase out the traditional lightbulb by 2011 have been announced by Environment Secretary Hilary Benn. Mr Benn told the Labour conference he wanted to see an end to the sale of 150-watt bulbs from next January. Less powerful traditional bulbs would be taken off the shelves in stages under the voluntary energy-saving scheme by 2011. Greenpeace said the move was 'long overdue' and would help the UK reduce its CO2 emissions."
