Incandescent light bulbs to be banned

I didn't hear about this back in Feb but it seems Australia will ban standard lightbulbs in 2009. See an article on it here.

By forcing people to buy the more effecient compact fluorescent bulbs we'll save a huge amount of C02 and most people want have to do anything.. This is great news and I hope other countries follow. We may not have signed the Kyoto agreement but at least this helps.
