From a media release:
"The Rudd Labor Government and Lighting Council Australia have joined forces to fast track the phase out of inefficient light bulbs in Australia, bringing forward an import ban to November this year.
The 12-month acceleration of the four-year phase out, beginning with the introduction of a ban on imported incandescent lamps from this year, will result in earlier cuts to greenhouse emissions of more than four million tonnes per year.
Retailers will then have a further 12 months to sell existing supplies before any sort of retail ban comes into effect."
I think this change will have a small effect. But sure the government is there to do things that won't make a difference.
Maybe Bunnings is trying to sell off its stock of incandescent light blubs. I don't think anyone is suggesting that they should just dump them.
