In this ecumenical project, youth learn more about climate
change, teach that knowledge to the congregation, and become
part of real change in God's great creation! By selling Compact
Fluorescent Light Bulbs in their congregation, youth groups
can make money for mission trips or other special projects while
raising awareness of what a difference CFLs can make for the
environment.
Using just one CFL:
- Keeps 2.1 ounces of soot out of the air
- Saves 3.15 lbs. of sulfur dioxide
- Reduces nitrogen oxide by 1.71 lbs.
- Reduces Carbon Dioxide by 463.5 lbs.
A youth group, individual, or church can view, download or
order a hard-copy of the educational packet at Youth
CFL Project. This packet of materials is your gateway to
getting on board and getting your CFLs!
