Edison invented electric lights in the 19th century, but traditional light bulbs are now facing a wave of power saving and are gradually being phased out by some countries. The picture shows a 1879 street lamp shining in front of the Edison portrait of the Edison Museum in the United States.
After 120 years of traditional light bulbs, the lights are finally turned off. The British people have been rushing to hoard in the past few days, hoping to retain this traditional light.
After a big snap, a small-scale supermarket and DIY chain stores across the UK sold light bulbs of 100 watts. Only a few stores said that stocks could be sold next week.
The European Union has banned the sale of 100 watts of traditional light bulbs since September, and has banned all traditional wattage bulbs since 2012. After taking office in 2007, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown also announced that the United Kingdom will follow the rules and switch to a power-saving fluorescent lamp (CFL).
Retailers stopped selling 150-watt bulbs in 2008 and will stop selling 60-watt bulbs in 2009.
When it opened in 2009, the retail store began to stop the 100-watt bulb replenishment. The voluntary suspension period was withdrawn in 2012, after which the government issued a penalty, but it has caused panic among the people. One hundred watts is the most widely used traditional light bulb in the UK, making ceiling lights, and 60 watts are usually used for table lamps and reading.
The European Union will ban the sale of 100 watts of traditional light bulbs in September, and will ban all traditional wattage bulbs in 2012. After taking office in 2007, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown also announced that the United Kingdom will follow the rules and switch to energy-saving bulbs.

Chain supermarket Sansburys said that traditional 100-watt bulbs can be said to have been sold out, and Homebase and Asda said the shelves are empty. Tesco, the UK's largest light bulb store, says inventory can be sold for a few more days.
Housewife Loretta said she has stocked 50 traditional light bulbs: I am very afraid of saving light bulbs, and I buy several traditional light bulbs every time I go to Sansburys. I use a power-saving light bulb for my neighbors. It’s terrifying. It feels so cold. It’s frustrating in winter, especially when the light is too dark.
Promoting energy-saving fluorescent lamps is part of the EU's policy toward climate change. According to the study, the energy consumption of energy-saving fluorescent lamps is one-fourth that of traditional light bulbs, which can reduce about 5 million tons of carbon dioxide per year, and each can save seven pounds ($340) for one household.
However, the fluorescent lamp is more suitable for the office, and it is not suitable for the home. Some people are allergic to the fluorescent lamp and have a rash, a migraine, and the fluorescent lamp contains mercury. In addition, the traditional light bulbs of six groups of one group sold an average of 1.21 pounds in a British supermarket, while a 60-watt power-saving light bulb would cost 2.19 pounds.
