Last Friday, on Chief Minister’s talkback, Jon Stanhope let himself be monstered by a crank who thought street lighting was a waste of greenhouse emissions.
One suspects that could be the motivation for an announcement of progress in converting the city’s street lighting over to energy efficient light globes.
No mention of whether we’ve gone with the low-mercury globes or if we have a plan to deal with it. But that’s no different from most other users of CFLs.
