LED lights reduce more than 500 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions in 2017
According to foreign media reports, it seems that the popularity of light-emitting diodes (LED) has played a very positive role in environmental protection. According to a recent survey by IHS Markit, LED lights used to quantify building and outdoor buildings reduced CO2 emissions by approximately 570 million tons in 2017. This is equivalent to about 1.5% of the global carbon footprint. According to foreign media reports, it seems that the popularity of light-emitting diodes (LED) has played a very positive role in environmental protection. According to a recent survey by IHS Markit, LED lights used to quantify building and outdoor buildings reduced CO2 emissions by approximately 570 million tons in 2017. This is equivalent to about 1.5% of the global carbon footprint. In order to be more imaged, IHS made an analogy, which reduced the amount of carbon dioxide equivalent to shutting down 162 coal-fired power plants. It is understood that when the same light is produced, the LED lamp uses 40% less electricity than the fluorescent lamp and 80% less than the incandescent lamp. As Jamie Fox, chief analyst of the IHS Lighting and LED Lights team, points out, the efficiency of LEDs is the essential reason for their environmental protection. LEDs have many advantages over traditional light bulbs, such as their longer life, which means that people will need to produce fewer bulbs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions during manufacturing, transportation, and sales, and to the environment. Pollution. More importantly, unlike fluorescent lamps, LED lamps do not contain toxic chemical mercury. Although LED bulbs have been around for several years, consumers are discouraged by its high prices. But now this situation has begun to ease. For example, Philips' 16-segment LED bulbs are sold for $25 (equivalent to about RMB 163), that is, the price of each bulb is about About 1.56 US dollars (equivalent to about 10 yuan).
