Abstract

Green environment is not only planting of trees . It need not always be to create or invent something new for having a green surroundings and neighborhood. It can also be to measure to be taken to save our neighborhood from pollution. Many of us do not know the impact of using halogen lamps, neon lamps and other high voltage generating lighting system on our environment. These bulbs not only generate more heat in the surroundings where they are used but also consume high electricity. These lights when discarded will produce gases which are more harmful for the environment. They pollute the air by producing argon gas which will cause health issues like cancer, skin diseases. In the present day of nuclear families people are using more electricity and burn more lamps to have lighting in their homes. To give more clarity they are using artificial lighting to make their homes bright. This problem never arouse in the earlier period as the homes constructed were naturally built in such a way more air circulation was there and more ventilation. Homes in earlier days had backyards and more open space for good air circulation and natural lighting. But in the present few decades the culture of cluster homes apartments, multiplex complexes have become more common as people from rural areas are shifting towards urban cities. To accommodate these migrated families it has become a must to go for multiplex complexes and apartments. This is generating more pollution in the environment. In earlier days we never heard the terms of global warming, pollution control measures, Go green concepts. All these concepts have evolved in the last few decades. One of the reason is during increase in number of apartments, nuclear families. In places where one joint family was using a single lamp to complete their day to day activities are now replaced by 2 or 3 families using one light each in each house. So instead of one light we are using 3 or 4 lamps and generating more heat and pollution in our environment. The present study is an attempt to find out the alternative solution of using LED/LCD, iCaTS lamps on the energy saving and cost saving and environment friendly electric usage system.
