COP 16: Farewell to incandescent bulbs!

The Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP 16) held this month in Cancun, Mexico's President Felipe Calderón announced that as of January 2014 there will be no incandescent bulbs in the domestic market.

Was published in the Official Journal of the Federation unanueva Norma Oficial Mexicana which shall be mandatory throughout Mexico efficient light bulbs by 2014.

These measures were taken because of the problem we are currently facing climate change. Calderon said that "it is estimated that energy for lighting accounts for one fifth of total worldwide consumption, which generates 6% of global emissions of greenhouse gases." That is why you choose this new strategy in which estimated that in the next twenty years will see a decrease of at least 12% in energy consumption

In 2011 was 120 million pesos implemented to stimulate draft Energy Transition Fund and the Sustainable Use of Energy. Which consists of the replacement of energy saving light bulbs for homes and street lighting. Saving lamps to replace the municipalities are using less resources for the lighting of the same, so that the CFE will save money which will be implemented to further support the project. N addition to announcing the plan to eliminate incandescent reported strengthening the green mortgage program for homes, which consists of a kit of sustainable products to save water, electricity and gas, the latter by collectors solar.

A ball capable of storing energy.

ultimate in green power is called "s0kket" and is both a football and a renewable energy source laptop.

The original ball developed by engineering students at Harvard University captures the energy generated by a kick or a blow to the head on the ball and stored for later use.

The s0kket, weighing about 150 grams more than a normal soccer ball, picks up in fifteen minutes into the game, enough energy to light an LED for about three hours . The energy that you get well can be used to recharge mobile phones.

With this initiative, young engineers intended to replace kerosene lamps that are commonly used for domestic lighting in homes and businesses in the poorest regions of Africa, where 95% of the population no access to electricity. Still use kerosene, qe besides being expensive energy is dangerous (flammable), its combustion generates 190 million metric tons of carbon dioxide each year and smoke harms health and promote respiratory problems.
