Change a Light… Save the World

Energy Star wants to change the world, one light bulb at a time and invites you to join in! 2008 marks the launch of a new campaign for Energy Star called ‘Change the World, Start with ENERGY STAR’. The new campaign is designed to build off of the success of Energy Star’s former campaign ‘Change a Light , which led to a little less than one and a half million pledges to replace old lights with Energy Star approved lights. Ultimately, the campaign pledge, saved up to 1.3 billion kWh of energy in addition to about $127 million in energy costs!

Energy Star

The 2008 campaign is meant to exceed the success of the former campaign. The campaign’s main target is to fight against global warming by reducing the amounts of energy spent at home and work. The 2008 campaign begins on Earth Day, there are several ways for partners to get involved. These ways include:promoting the pledge, collecting real-life energy saving stories and hosting a campaign event.

Promoting the Pledge:

- Support the pledge by pushing individuals and organizations to find ways to save energy and in turn to fight global warming and by motivating employees, customers to take action.
- Help collect stories of individuals and companies who have made steps to improve the energy situation and post them on energystar.gov, to help encourage others to take similar steps.
