As continually specified here and on other carbon footprint websites, the push is on to lower carbon footprints around the world. Switching to LED (light-emitting diode) lighting is often touted as one of the simple means of reducing your carbon footprint. The problem has been the limited range of choices available as an alternative to traditional bulbs. Another new product expands the range available making it even easier to make the switch and whittle down the carbon footprint produced.
A new BR30 LED light has recently been released by GlacialTech Inc in two different models and has been designed to replace the existing equivalent BR30 globes and lamps currently used today. The big advantage with LED BR30 Globe is that it can be used for general everyday use from indoor applications to spotlighting.
The GlacialTech BR30 LED light is innovative because it incorporates the same structure and style as the traditional BR30 bulbs but burns brighter per watt with less heat radiation.
In the growing quest to reduce our individual carbon footprint, products such the BR30 LED home lighting unit delivers considerable power savings as well as providing much longer life than the traditional filament globes. The LED light is “instant on” with no necessary warming up period such as the type you see with conventional CFL lighting.

I bought LED lights to replace my halogen MR16 bulbs the other day from a website called LEDinsider.com that I would recommend enthusiastically. They had good service (good phone and email support), great FAQs so I knew what I needed, and competitive prices; also, their shipping was fast and the LEDs were as good as advertised. www.LEDInsider.com. Excellent online shopping experience.
