Choice Editing and China

18th October 2007 by Alex Briggs

China has agreed to phase out incandescent lightbulbs, according to this article.
The switch could mitigate 500 million tonnes of carbon dioxide annually, equal to about half the climate-warming emissions of Germany.
The European Union is scheduled to “choice edit” out inefficient lightbulbs within a decade.
China currently produce 70% of the world’s lightbulbs.
