The Case for Compact Fluorescent Lights:

If every American home replaced one bulb with an Energy Star CFL, the greenhouse gas emissions of 800,000 cars would be prevented from going into the atmosphere. You'd save about $30 on energy costs over the life of each bulb.

Refurbished Antique Furniture

Why It's Good:

This collection of breathtakingly gorgeous chairs and settees has us wishing for no less than three living rooms to furnish. Antique French and Italian pieces—with all their sexy, ornate curves—are given a bold coat of paint and reupholstered in eye-popping fabrics and patterns for a high-octane spin on the traditional that leaves us with jaws dropped.

Why It's Green:

Refurbishing an antique saves it from being tossed in a landfill—or languishing in someone's basement. Turning it into a new, usable item eliminates the need for a new one to be manufactured—with all the attendant energy use, emissions, and waste.
