Can someone tell me about the overall comparison costing of incandescent/fluorescent light bulbs taking into account:
Component resources used in each. It seems to me that a fluorescent light bulb has ten or more times of the world's diminishing mineral resources in its manufacture.
Cost of proper disposal (just added to the rates?)
Cost of transport of (20 times?) heavier item.
Any health issues?
It's just that I would like a full comparison rather than a comparative cost of only while it is plugged into the light socket
