If you currently own a building and are using fluorescent bulbs, you should look into getting T5 bulbs to save more energy also. www.lumiversal.com has a nice selection of different retrofit kits that you can buy that will make the change from T12 or T8 bulbs to T5 bulbs cheap and easy. Plus, all the money that you save on using less energy pays for the retrofit in just few years. I like this a lot, it is great seeing much more energy efficient buildings be built all over the world.
